Art Deco style Marcasite Ring

Hello!
I have an pretty Art Deco style Marcasite ring that was given to my mother by my grandmother and was recently given to me. It contains a hall mark which is '935' or '936' the last number is hard to make out but one of those and 'Germany'. I would assume it would have been purchased around c1940 or c.1950 as my grandmother purchased it whilst she was still young and she is born in the 1930's. I would love to find out more about it as I love it and would love to know so any help would be greatly appreciated
Thankyou so much in advance,
Tara

Attached are some pictures I took of it .. worn and by itself

 

Here is the other pic that didn't turn out

 

It looks a little art deco to me.
& when it was purchased , doesn't mean when it was made......
935 is a higher grade of sterling used by several countries.

 

It probably predates 1930, as they used a 935 standard (as well as .800) up to some time in the 1920s, I think. Then the 935 became 925, but it's tricky to find out exactly when this happened. (935 is a higher grade of silver, but not sterling, a term reserved for 925 silver.)

 

Yes of course........my Sterling .....should have read ...Silver !

but it was late & I was sleepy........

 

I do tend to be pedantic.

 

What an admirable trait.........

 

Not really, I often have to flee howling mobs who do not know the difference between a pedant, a pediatrician and a pedophile.

Even by West Midlands standards I live in a remarkably stupid area.

 

It seems to hold you in good stead around here ....while not causing any major conflagrations ......or contempt !

 

But I digress........you were well within your rights to point out my error !

 

Thank you so much for your expertise! Much appreciated
I had a feeling it might have been older because upon research, I could not find many 1940s rings that were made in the same style if it were bought new. There were a few similar marcasite rings from the 1920s on Etsy that were similar but not as detailed (picture attached). The bands are very similar style to. I assumed it was purchased around the time but wasn't certain when it was made so thank you for both of your knowledge on hallmarks..interesting to learn. I think I will keep it for very special occasions because I do not want it to get too worn or damaged!

 

Oops I meant to write underneath both of the replies! It is directed to both of you!

 

If you like it wear it with conviction......it won't do you any good sitting in a box !!

.....

 

It could be time for new nail polish though.......

 

You guys were showing admirable restraint about the polish and all, and then...! The beauty is, she can always say that's a new style. Bible.

 

My SIL is an Esthetician & nail expert.......that "was" my restraint !

I'm not arguing, but: lol

 

There's a difference between a style ....and not having your nails done....& if that's a new style......gag me with a spoon !!!
