Got this one the other day, a 14k white & yellow gold "lucky ring" that apparently didn't bring the owner much luck. It has 20 white sapphires, a small ruby, and the typical elephant with it's trunk turned up, On the left side there is a white gold horseshoe and on the right side a white gold "7". I've searched the internet for another one like it but can't find one. Found a unique ring? Then post it here because I like seeing the unique and/or unusual.

Have several odd and unusual gold rings, here are two you would not see now days.

Early 1900's,..... Fools gold crystals used as the mounted stone in a gold ring, then considered Good Luck.. have a few of these but this maybe the strangest looking.

Late 1800's Gold mourning hair ring. this one more then likely had hair from a child or baby who had died.. hair wrapped internally, has a open back..

Awesomer! Give me a minute....I have a ring you may be able to explain as I thought it was a gold spinner but now you have me thinking it may be something similar to what you just shared?

Awesomer! So are the initials in relation to the hair as well? I'm guessing these are also something from the past as I have never seen anything like them before? Like I said, I just figured it was a gold spinner missing the spinner portion.....lol

I found this ring this past April on a Cape Cod beach. Not my favorite, but it is unusual. It is related to the Twin Peaks show, which I never really watched. It resembles a stump, is made of silver, I believe, and has a quote from the series on one side: "My log has something to tell you." Apparently an eccentric character on the show had a communicative relationship with a log. Strange! 20210921_181516.jpg 20210921_181935.jpg

Pretty sure it's a Girl Scout ring.
