<p>[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 238812, member: 29"]It might just edge into the 20th C. I'd use the washing up liquid: I'm a bit wary of toothpaste on moonstones, it can scratch. Agree on garnet, which is the most likely for the date. Blue might possibly be art glass - I think this is Austrian or Bohemian. The setting and rope edge look it to me. Have a VERY good look and see if there isn't a teeny tiny 800 or 900 mark on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
