[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 295892, member: 2844"]Yes, it is very much like a tank ring of the type seen in Retro jewellery, which is why I dated it 1940s-50s. There have been tank rings since the tank (military) was introduced in WWI, most of them were very plain, sturdy bandrings. The modern tank rings have that same plain look. The Retro period made them into those wonderful flamboyant rings, still with a sturdy look. Phaik's ring is more delicate, but definitely the style. Btw, I always wanted one too.:)[/QUOTE]
