<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 2206883, member: 2844&quot;]Love the ring, Barn. Not Yemeni Jewish, but much more rare, Bulgarian Jewish.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>It is a Bulgarian crown ring, originally a Byzantine type ring, which is still made and worn in Bulgaria. I have no doubt yours is Jewish, and it is the first Jewish Bulgarian crown ring I have ever seen.</p><p>It doesn&#039;t seem to have great age, I would guess second half of the 20th century. There is still a Jewish community in Bulgaria, with functioning synagogues.</p><p>I guess 770 is either the fineness, or a maker&#039;s code.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some non-Jewish Bulgarian crown rings I used to have, so you get an idea:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]254411[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]254412[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
