Featured Ring with stone I have no clue about x

    Hello everyone xxx

    Got this darling from eBay, I love her.

    Could someone please tell me what the stone could be? In some lights it seem to have a petrol type sheen ( but as we know, I do sometimes have flights of fancy).
    It's a strange stone...can see through some of it.
    I blacklighted it and not sure if the whiteish bit reacted or not. The rest of it didn't.

    The stone itself is approx an inch (two and a half cms I think). Looks a bit like a river pebble

    Feels and smells like silver.

    Could anyone tell a rough estimate of when it was made? xx

    I have no clue what to look for, it is a stone I'm pretty sure as it's cold.
    It's deep, the construction seems a bit complex.


    Thanks everyone ( The Dragon's Breath turned up ok btw!!) xx

    It's agate, chalcedony that formed in layers. Hey Cousin Bou!

    At times, it seems to have a petrol-y type shimmer,is that possible do you think? Or am I merely imagining again? xx

    Hi Bou.:happy::kiss: Love the ring, very nicely made.
    With those frilly details in the white band, I wonder if the agate could qualify as lace agate.
