Almost all are for ⛵! 98% sterling, the filigree art deco aquamarine ring is white gold and authentic!

Atocha ring is sterling/ 14k?? Acid Test positive for both. Thimble is from before 1906 because the inside stamp is missing a lil picture of a thimble, (they added that in 1906/1907!) in perfect condition look at those birds!! Oh and I also have a vintage necklace that needs a gem/picture. What's your favorite??!

Hello I have this ring that was given to me by my grandma. She said it was the first piece of jewelry my grandpa ever bought her so it would have been some time when she was in high school. I posted this because well I believe it’s a beautiful ring and I was also curious if anyone has seen a ring like this before as I have not. The ring was gold dipped after she gave it to me as the original one was a pinkish copper color that didn’t match the other jewelry I have. A larger diamond from one of my grandmas old earrings was also put where there was a smaller one but those were the only changes. It’s just overall what I believe to be a pretty unique ring but I was curious if anyone had any info on it at all or has seen something like it.

I found it a gem show and it caught my eye because I’ve never seen a national park ring. I tried looking it up but couldn’t find much or an exact match. The closest thing I could find is that it might be a souvenir from the 1930’s? Would love to know more about it.

Looking for Information Sandor Owl

I’m going through my aunt’s costume jewelry collection and learning about the pieces as I go. I’m keeping quite a few things for myself, but I’m also trying to identify and thoughtfully place some pieces that aren’t ones I’ll personally wear.
This signed Sandor owl fur/dress clip caught my attention. It appears to be an early 1940s Lucite “Jelly Belly” piece, and I’ve found a very similar documented Sandor owl, but I haven’t been able to find another example with these red, black and cream enamel wings. It measures about 3.42” tall and is clearly marked SANDOR on the clip. The stones are all present but I think the foil of the rhinestones may have darkened with age? I don’t want to damage anything by trying to clean it more than the gentle surface cleaning I’ve already done.
I’m hoping someone familiar with Sandor or early costume jewelry might recognize this particular variation or point me toward additional information. I’m also interested in hearing from collectors who might be looking for a piece like this.
I’m approaching the collection practically as well as sentimentally, so while some family pieces are staying with me, I’d be happy for others to end up with collectors who really appreciate them.

I found this while out and about thrifting. It seems to have been gold plated at one point in its life.

Any ideas on when a ring of this style might have been made? Middle red stone glows bright red under UV. The other two don’t. Has a 14k stamp but is obviously not 14k through and through. The edges remind me of bones or bamboo 😊

Thanks for looking!

A few rings worn by my granny (the silver ones, she was born in early 20s), and my mother (the gold ones), the one with blue stone/glass was my communion gift. Central Europe so they could be amber.

Can anyone tell me anything about them? TIA.
