A silver baby ring today

[alabama11]

Hunting a great place in its final days. Got a little squeak and thought it was something deep- but not so.
A union camp was here and 1960 Military housing so anything is possible. Have found a flying eagle 1858 and cw bullet too. A silver baby ring maybe.

Sweet,, baby rings are very dangerous,, but a ring is a ring and it's nice to come home with Silver.

What color are the stones?

The stones are red. Two of 3 are there. A friend said probably garnets.

 

[Sheperdess]

Thank you!

Nice recovery on the ring. Congrats
It's hard to tell how big it actually is, but the thought came to mind having 3 stones it might be a small family ring.

Congrats on your ring find alabama.
Recovering a child's ring is a special find, it sure would nice to try and track down the original owner.

Red Garnet stones symbolize love and friendship, associations with the heart, blood, inner fire, and life force.
Garnets have long been considered symbols of love. Garnet symbolism also extends to friendship.

Love the detailed workmanship on the face of this piece.

Sweet find Alabama! Garnets are the birthstone for January. Could be when the baby was born. I had one. Ruby for July. And as against the wind pointed out, they are dangerous. I was one of the statistics. I swallowed mine and had to go to Drs and get X-rays. Then my mom had to monitor me for a couple days. I can still remember a little. Bless her heart, she found it, cleaned it and put it on a necklace. I still have it.

I love your story about 'The Swallowed Birthstone' WD, just don't put the pendent in your mouth one day without thinking.

Hope you and your Dad are doing well,
