<p>[QUOTE="Ce BCA, post: 9446724, member: 18716"]I would place this as 1910-25, the 18ct and Platinum combination is rarely seen before the Edwardian period. Also although the design isn't at all Art Deco many items were made at that period that did not take the Deco form so it can be Deco period, but not Deco style. It looks like a very nice example and if the ruby is natural that is a great bonus. Lab-grown stones were around at this time, but the quality of the piece would likely suggest a natural stone. It's a great find as it looks in good shape too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
