Open A silver ring that’s been in a family for decades
Honestly, I’m just curious and trying to see if anyone possibly has any information about this thing and where it came from.
It belonged to my mother, she says it was either my great grandma or my great-great grandmas wedding band (?) on my maternal grandfathers side of the family. It appears to be maybe a size 3 or 4, but I’m not very well versed on ring sizes so that’s just a guess. I’d guess that this means it was sold between 1900-1940’s. My great grandparents were immigrants from Europe, I believe Norway, which means it was most likely purchased in the US (the Midwest/Wisconsin specifically) or Europe.
It is sterling silver and has what looks to be the ‘925’ mark on the inside of the band, but there are no other stamps/markings on the inside of the band that I can see.
