    stone identification? And how can I tell if it’s a true stone ? I know about checking fir bubbles with a loupe which I’ve done ...

    Trying to see if this is a true peridot

    And what is the clear stone?

    Certainly looks peridot green to me, but really a jeweler would be better able to confirm it. It's more likely to be a gemstone if the metal is precious (gold/silver/plat). Top one may be quartz? It looks nicely faceted, but is it loose in the setting?

    Jivvy the research is my favorite

    Might help to show pictures of the markings.

    Won't identify the stones, but might give an idea of the quality of the setting. Which can be informative.

    The answer to what kind of stone this sterling ring holds is 'filthy'.

    It's a stone with a broken corner.

    Ashley, loupe the clear stone ring and tell us what the marking shown says. I am curious.

    Think it just says STERLING, upside down.

    Lol, thank you, Bronwen. I am spatially-challenged, seriously, and can't see these things.

    OMG, I saw that you thought it said "sterling" and I thought, "nooo..."

    I was very wrong. :hilarious:
