    Possibly pinchbeck? Check this out, looks like the same 3 Graces cameo, with a different setting (pinchbeck, according to this link):

    On another note, this is a "find" I found in Cape May, a splurge. This is an Art Nouveau 14k and diamond cufflink converted into a ring. I saw it, had to have it, could not leave the store without it, kinda like that Red Baron plane. I rarely see anything I "have to have" this expensive anymore, haven't done this in years.
