<p>[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 265599, member: 2844"]A shamrock and a triskelion certainly points to Irish, and a lot of 'Irish' jewellery is made in England. But the marks on yours are not British, 10k as opposed to 10ct (older pieces). The British rarely used 10ct gold anyway, it was usually 9ct.</p><p>I think yours is North American. The blue colour of the shamrock, though very beautiful, seems odd for a piece made for Irish, wherever they live. </p><p>Blue, white, red, colours of the American flag (and the Union Jack).
