[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 4483147, member: 360"]I know this may well be an impossible question to answer, but I thought I'd try anyway. I have here an 18kt gold ring which I bought at the flea-market last week. I liked it because of the blue-coloured stone set into it. I don't know what it is, and neither did the seller (he guessed amethyst). I showed it to another dealer and he thinks sapphire. I'm going to get it tested properly this weekend. But that aside - does anybody have any ideas about how old this ring might be? Is the style indicative of any particular era or location? [ATTACH=full]389696[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389697[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389698[/ATTACH] The only marking is <750> which is stamped inside (and outside) the gold band, in a sort of diamond-shape border, for 18kt gold.[/QUOTE]
