    Fancy that eh.
    Remember this I found 22 months ago.
    https://www.antiquers.com/threads/a-couple-of-rings-hallmark-ids.64714/#post-4292912

    It was a gold ring with a real pearl mounted with nearly invisible marks.
    Turns out it was 18k and pearl with Arabic marks.

    I found another yesterday with some other gold pieces and it had the same marks that were too tiny to read.

    Two 22k wedding bands , an engagement ring and an articulated fish to go with the collection.

    I was thinking about you yesterday @daveydempsey thinking it was about time you started one of your house clearance threads where you share all the goodies you find! I find them fascinating :)

    Love the gold and pearl(?) ring on the left. Looks like angel-skin coral to me, but I wouldn't kick it out of bed either way.

    Joking aside, I like the signets, think they might be coming back, God knows how many were scrapped

    Worn by many a fashionista

    I've done a few and found some interesting stuff but not had time to post much.
    This one has British hallmarks and was really dirty.

    Was she found under a pile of stuff? ;):playful::playful: :hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:

    Also, does she ever help with the jobs? Just wondering if she has gotten intrigued considering some of your finds. :happy::happy:

    As far as the ring, my eyes were drawn to it immediately. Is it very old or something more recent? :happy::happy:

    No never comes on a job, she is not interested in antiques.
    The ring is 18k ruby & diamond dated 1878 Chester.
