I used to deal exclusively in sterling silver napkin rings when I did shows (Round Top, Dallas Tower Show). I recently uncovered a stash of rings and am listing all at close to melt prices. Please see my other items — combined actual shipping always applies. Shape: Pebbled BandMonograms: M superimposed with S, so «MS» or «SM»Dimensions: 1.75″ Diameter x 1-3/8» TallSilver Weight: 18 gramsSilver content: 80% (Continental 800 silver)Hallmarks / Makers Marks: Crescent Moon & Crown (Germany country mark after 1888), then two marks I cannot identifyOrigin: Germany Style: EuropeanApproximate manufacturing year(s): 1900 Condition: Excellent giftable condition. Monogram is «M» superimposed with «S». In round. There is a side indentation which I believe is a struck hallmark due to it’s uniform oval shape, not a blemish, but I can’t read it. No reportable issues, such as nicks, dents, pings, dings, bashes, unusual scratches, bends, monogram removals, or other blemishes. Faint surface abrasions create patina consistent with age and use. Recent thorough hand polish. Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. Please ask me for specific quote if you feel shipping cost is too high. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. If you have a question on an item prior to purchase, please ask. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
