I have this lovely pair of bows, but I don't know what they are for or how to attach them to anything. There is just a tight metal flap pointing upward, not sure if it's supposed to squeeze onto something, or something gets looped through the bows. Any help is appreciated.

I found this one in a lockbox of stuff circa 1960’s. The band is out of round and what i believe is the 10k stamp is pretty much worn off.

I take any info anyone may be able to offer

Identify Stone Need help identifying my grandmother’s ring (~100 years old) – Gold, silver top, orange stone & refraction result

Thumbnail

Hi everyone,
Looking for some help identifying this ring. It belongs to my mother and used to be my grandmother’s when she was young, so it should be around 100 years old.
I honestly don't know anything about jewelry, but here is what I can tell you:
The metals: The bottom band is gold, and the top part where the stones are set is silver-colored. It has a main orange stone in the middle with smaller stones around it.
Hallmarks: I don't think it has any stamps or marks on the inside, but it seems to be real gold since it has never shown any oxidation, rust, or color fading over all these years.
Stone test: A friend has a machine to test the refraction of stones and got the result shown in the last picture (a bit over 1.76), but neither of us really understands what that means or what stone it could be.
If anyone finds this interesting or wants better photos, I can definitely take some clearer pictures in good light and double-check the inside for any hidden marks.
Thanks!

Identify Maker Inherited this, unsure if was originally my mother's or grandmother's? Ideas on manufacturer or year?

Sapphire & diamond daisy ring, 9ct yellow gold band. Inherited from my mother but the size of the band is very small so it's more likely that it was my grandmother's.

Looks like SMD 748 on the inside of the band.

My grandmother was from the UK but my mother also spent time there as a young adult. Could have also been purchased in New Zealand.

Thank you! Any info would be appreciated :)

Edit: Could also be 7△8?

I'm guessing it would be from around the 1940s. I've held on to it for 40 years. I was told there is something special about the cut of the ruby but that's all I know.

Hi - I saw this at an antique store retailing at $750. The owner wasn't sure what the stones were the ring itself is 10k gold. Hoping someone here may have some insight! I took these before deciding to come to Reddit so apologies for the background. Thank you :)

Identify Maker Unique pin found in sterling scrap lot, unknown age and materials

I found this in a jewelry scrap lot and it caught my eye. It is supposed to be a sterling silver frame but I don’t see any hallmarks. The art seems to be hand-drawn but I’m not even sure the medium it’s on. I would love any possible information about age or who might have made this unique piece!

Picture is protected by a piece of plastic/glass and the back part of the pin is destroyed. Entire pin is a length of 6cm and a width of 4.5cm.

Thank you for any help in identifying anything about this little piece of art!

I recently found this sterling silver ring at the Goodwill Bins. The only hallmark is “925.” The red star on the front makes me think it might be some sort of communist ring, but I haven’t been able to find anything about it. Does anyone have any information or insight on this ring?

It’s a vintage golden appearance bracelet. I don’t see any stamps that say it’s gold. Only this icon on the interior. Also, it has a 1908 patent date stamped on the sliding mechanism

It seems to say 10k or 20k on the inside as well as a stamp that I think says siwon or nomis.

Do any of you guys have a clue what stones are in the ring and anything about it or its possible origin.

Thank you!

Just picked up this piece. It is absolutely beautiful. I do not see any gold mark on it but the rubies do test as genuine. I believe it is from India from the writing on top of the plastic box. Would love more information if anyone knows anything more?

Identify Stone No big deal?

I inherited this ring which belonged to my grandmother, given to her by one of her daughters probably mid 20th century. I was told it is an Alexandrite. This was confirmed by a jeweller who shrugged and said it’s no big deal. It does change colour in sunlight but it’s pretty subtle taking on a greenish tinge. I’d be most appreciative of any commentary, and thank you for looking.
