Vintage Art Deco 835 Silver Ring Marcasite Carnelian
As you can see this needs a good cleaning which will be left up to the next collector. When louping, it is here where one can see the casting method of silversmithing involved. Here also, the maker "scraped" 5 slivers of metal to hold (as if prongs) the carnelian. Will wait for a sunny day to attempt to photograph the two miniscule depressed touch marks.
