Resurrection Of An Oldie

This hunt was made in April while hunting with my Buddy OBN and thought I posted it over here but now realize I didn't. I thought some might like to hear the story behind it.

These three rings were found that day and I thought the ring on the left was junk...

...however, after cleaning it I noticed it was marked 14K and tested the same.

I don't ( and never have ) worn any jewelry but liked this old ring. I brought it to a jeweler to have it cleaned, sized, put a topaz in it and have an old script letter "A" put on it.

The following day I received a call from the jeweler telling me he had bad news, the ring was gold rolled and he couldn't do the things I wanted.

I really liked this old ring and decided to have it cast in 14K with the work described above. I gave the jeweler some gold rings to use for the project.

Three weeks later got a call saying the ring was finished. Above and below is my old resurrected ring. Hope you enjoy it as much as I.

Thanks for looking.
 
very nice Frank but please tell me you didn't give the jeweler the red stone rings to make that one ?? ;)
 
Thanks guys.

:duh:I should of known that :embarrassed:

Dan, I felt the same way when I sent you the pictures below to ID for me. When you replied and told me it was a wax seal I said to myself, ":duh: I should have known that :embarrassed: "....sound familiar.

The wax seal was 14K and found in the H2o.
