Description from the seller

A rather rare and heavy silver ring featuring a beautiful mosaic of coral, mother-of-pearl, onyx and turquoise.

Front of the ring measures 1.7 x 2.7 cm.

The ring size is 20.75 mm / 65 EU.

Stamped with importer’s mark NP+ and a letter T. The outside shows a 925 mark (sterling silver).

Weight of the ring is 21.1 grams.

Seller's Story

Aagje Burger began in 2008 as a company in antiques, art and curios. It is named after my grandmother Aagje Braun-Burger, who since the 1920s bought beautiful items at the public auctions of notaries. In 2013 I shifted the focus to vintage and antique jewelry, partly thanks to Catawiki where jewelry in the early curios auctions performed so well that a separate jewelry auction was soon created. I myself had the opportunity to contribute there for many years and have looked at and appraised hundreds of thousands of pieces. In the past 10 years, jewelry has become my core activity. The best thing about this work is digging through piles of junk to find the pearls, but I also buy in classic pieces that you can wear every day and through the decades without becoming old-fashioned. In this trade you learn something new every day by investing time in researching designers, goldsmiths, periods and styles. It is the best job in the world, and I hope you enjoy what we have to offer :). Shipping Sold lots are carefully packaged and shipped with UPS or DHL Express, depending on your location. It is possible to hold items if you expect to buy additional items or have already purchased, so they can be shipped together. The maximum period in which you can combine lots is 1 week. Please let us know directly at your payment if you plan to do this. When you buy jewelry in different auctions, Catawiki does not automatically combine the shipping costs. Your overpaid costs are always refunded. In that case, please send us a message with your IBAN or PayPal details. Without these details we cannot, unfortunately, issue a refund afterwards.
