If someone tested the stone for you with an electronic diamond tester, they probably couldn't get a reading on the accent stones. They should also be diamonds as well. Based on your pic, I'd say the center stone 'might' be a' 1/6th carat at the most, but is probably even smaller than that. Great find for discarded trash

: amazing story is this ring I found in a big bag of garbage laying on the side of the road , I had it checked out turns out it's a real diamond in the center and the accents are something else it's 14 karat gold size 7 and I'd guess maybe about 1 or 1 1\2 karat diamond I forgot to ask whats your guess karat amount??
Congrats on your find, it's a real beauty.
What does the maker's mark say in the diamond (beside the 14K stamp)?

Just out of curiosity, what in the world made you stop to go through a bag of garbage? :icon_scratch:
