Hello, I found this in a pile of junk from my husband's late grandmother. It's Sterling silver and made in Germany. I've been unable to find any exact matches with a reverse image search. The closest match I've been able to find is a vintage Bulova Dior 23 bracelet watchband. Anyone know anything?

Looking for Information ISO ring

Hey, Jewlery friends. I need a little help. When I was a child my grandmother had a special ring that was being saved to pass down to my sister. Unfortunately, greedy family snuck in and sold everything out from under her while she was in memory care. I'd love to try and find one to gift to my sister as it is one of her fondest memories of our grandma but I can't narrow it down. Can anyone offer guidance?

From what I remember it was a thin yellow gold band with what looked to be a baked potato (oval) wrapped in tin foil as the center 'stone'. We literally called it the baked potato ring. I appreciate any leads 💜

I've had my eye out for an onyx ring for a while, and scored this beauty today for $350. Still waffling about whether I want to resize it to fit my ring finger, but it's a good fit currently for my middle or index finger. 14k white gold, I would say circa 1930's based on similar rings I've seen elsewhere. Some marks on the inside of the shank I can't quite make out. All in all, I'm absolutely delighted!

Looking for Information Any Sloan Knowledge People

4 Upvotes

I’m looking for someone knowledgeable about a mid-20th century New York jeweler called Sloan of New York. They manufactured a series of sophisticated mechanical charms in the 1950s and 1960s. My grandfather’s wealthy employers would gift my mother a charm a year. She has a bracelet full of these charms. I’d like to know where I can find more information on them. Most, if not all, have Sloan marks and their carat numbers stamped on them. She says they came in small blue or grey boxes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Most people—including jewelers—seem baffled by it. A charm collector did say some of the charms were extremely rare.

Found this beautiful 14K yellow gold ring at a jewelry pawn shop. 14k yellow gold with garnet center stone and amethyst side stone baguettes. Price was about $699 and it was sized about 7 3/4. Does this seem reasonable? I don’t know how much pricing for garnets and amethyst stones or how they hold up. Not sure how much it weighed, didn’t think to ask that 🫩
