    Just a small ring, anyone know what the "L34" means? What about the Chinese characters? The number on the right is "6":

    You're right, the Pt 999 mark is a mark for high grade platinum. I don't know about the other marks.
    6, American ring size 6?

    Yep, platinum!
    The middle mark is a Chinese happiness symbol...

    Of course, the Fu character for luck/happiness. I've seen it a thousand times, but I thought it would be a Chinese maker's mark, not my forte, so I didn't look closely.
    It would be nice to see the entire ring, so we at least know what we're talking about, and there may be more clues there.

    Yes, and the Fu could be a blessing on the inside. Nice idea.

    Thanks for all your replies. :woot:
    I forgot to give a size reference... again. It is a very small ring, it's 10mm in diameter so I don't think it's a wedding band. Looks like a children's ring!

    It was probably worn on a chain, as a pendant.

    Or on a charm bracelet. They made small ones for gifts for a recently engaged lady, or for members of wedding parties.
