[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9522790, member: 2844"]Gorgeous ring, p. I agree with 1930s. The crest on the box is not a hallmark. Since the maker's mark on the ring is different from the crest on the box, the box is unrelated to the maker. It could be the crest of the retailer. The triangular mark on the ring is more important in this case, it is the maker's mark, and I think it is a very clear mark. The worn mark next to it is the 10K fineness mark. This is a great resource for maker's marks identification: [URL]https://www.langantiques.com/university/makers-marks-2/[/URL] A hallmark is an assay or guarantee mark, stamped by an official agency under government control. The USA doesn't have hallmarks. It is an Art Deco ring, period, imo. The maker's mark looks North American to me, so beyond me.;)[/QUOTE]
