[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1160632, member: 2844"]Welcome Meg. It is a lovely ring. Worth polishing a bit more to see what happens. The style and the squarish prongs or claws of the mount make me think of southern German and Austrian jewellery, of a style that is worn with the local costumes. These are still extremely popular in that region, and they make rings like this one in silver and garnet as well as silverplated and garnet glass. Yours is an older, well made ring. Try the German ebay, ebay.de, for 'Trachtenring', or google 'Trachtenring'.[/QUOTE]
