[Skippy123]

Beautiful rings Madam!!! You have quite the collection

 

[Selkie]

The sapphires, particularly the halo''ed one and the oval look beautiful. I''m also curious about the 1950''s fishtail set diamond. Looks somewhat similar to my setting, and I''m wondering if you know who made it?

 

[Madam Bijoux]

Thanks again, everyone! Selkie, I don''t know who made the 1950''s ring. The setting is 14 karat white gold and it isn''t signed. I know that it was a fairly common design in the 1950''S through the early 1960''S.

 

[Maisie]
