| Egypt mania spread across the globe in the 1920s and this rare brass ring captures the exotic spirit of the accessories of the time. The brass ring has a hammered-look background upon which are affixed two sharply detailed turtles. Imitation jade (called Peking Glass by many) cabochons are set in toothed bezel mounts; the larger stone is flanked top and bottom by scrolls. The ring is adjustable and is currently a size 7. The back has an etched number "1124" with a "6" beneath. I have left the original patina in place as it adds so much to the aged effect of the ring. The inside is stamped with an arrow through a "U," the trademark of the Uncas Company of Providence, Rhode Island, founded in 1911. It’s so hard to find good costume rings from this period as this was really the beginning of the acceptance of frankly faux jewelry and this is a superb example in unworn condition! |
