Hello everyone
found this ring earlier this year and it has had me puzzled. First it is marked 999 not 925 and it is very large. I wear a 12 and it is way bigger than that. It seems to be telling a story? Every other symbol is turned opposite of the one prior. Anyone ever seen a ring like this ,any help much appreciated. Lots of pictures of the symbols. Keep swinging everyone

The rest of the story:

Lakes / Finnish design Land of thousands of lakes. This symbol depicts the beauty of Finnish nature – forests, lakes and the kneeling landscape of the north. The symbol also refers to Finland's diverse design culture, such as Alvar Aalto's smooth and refined architecture and design, which have become part of Everyday Life in Finland. (Finland's 188,000 lakes cover 10% of the country's total area)

Bear Finland's national animal is a brown bear.


Phone This symbol combines Finnish design and technology. Finnish industry focused for years on the forest industry (cellulose). Nothing else has had the same impact on Finnish industry as Nokia. (Nokia's rise in the 1990s from a company that manufactured rubber boots and rolls of toilet paper, named after a small Town in Finland, to become one of the biggest technology trailblasts of the late 20th century is an amazing success story.)

Pic #6 in the original post apparently represents a Nokia cell phone. (Wow, really?) So the ring can't be older than say the 1990's. Maybe early 2000's...

I'm so let down! I was really hoping it would be old. Still a cool dig, though.
