Biggest ring haul!! Stunning pieces... Ostby Barton, Tiffany, Delfino, & More

I got some amazing rings today, might make three posts here. This first post I just wanted to show the rings I am sure about! First off is this HEAVY sterling, 10k gold topped, intaglio ring for $15. How thick are gold tops usually? I just assumed they were thick gold plates essentially, but not sure! 1940s-50s

Next up is an absolutely STUNNING Ostby Barton sterling intaglio. This one is unique in the fact the intaglio part is sterling with like black enamel filling the soldier's head. $10 for this one, also fits me!! 1940s

This is a very cool ring, smaller for $5. Not sure on the stone, probably green agate of some sort, just marked sterling.

Next is my first piece of designer Taxco sterling. Made be Delfino the ring is in great condition. I am very surprised the pearl has stayed unbroken since it sticks out so much...

Here is a Tiffany & Co. ring for $15, heavy but really small.

Finally is a deep glass amber intaglio, perfect, not one scratch so it seems!

Very nice! I've seen that intaglio amber ring before somewhere .

The amber intaglio is great however, very small size and no markings argh! Still a nice display piece!

Green stone may be tourmaline ? If so, would probably bring more value than agate. On second thought...... might be agate. Love to see a better pic of that stone.

I replied with the same exact thing until I blew up the photo and saw the inclusion.

Great haul of rings. Agreed the last is da bomb!

You all like the ring that is too small with no markings! haha maybe one day I'll pop that intaglio out and find a setting suitable for wearing. It is a stunning glass piece for sure, one of the nicer ones I have seen, paid $5 for it!

Those are some great rings. And I agree that the last one is a show stopper!! Well done.

What size is the last one? Did you test it? It could be Sterling even if not marked. I personally wouldn't take the stone out. It Gorgeous and it'll fit someone... 🤗

 

[Spartcom5]

Oh yea it's sterling for sure! Not sure on the size atm but it's smaller than 5 or so.

OK I know why it looked so familiar, I have a similar ring. I like your cameo better though.
