Unusual vintage Retro style asymmetrical Yellow Sapphire and White Spinel 10k Gold ring. I test all stones with an electronic tester to verify their id. The larger stone test result is Sapphire, the smaller round ones are White Spinel. I assume this is a lab created Sapphire. The color is beautiful and rich, more vivid than a Citrine. The price point for the ring does not warrant sending it to a lab for analysis. If it happens to be natural (repeating, I do not believe it is) you have yourself a rare treasure. Ring is size 5.5 US. Setting measures 7/16" by a bit over 3/8" wide. Stone measured in the setting is is almost 3/8" tall by 1/4" wide. All measurements are approximate. Marked 10k and "WB" for the maker on the inside of the shank, it was carefully tested to verify gold content. Ring weighs 2.5 grams.

Pretty filigree Maltese cross shaped pendant with Garnet stones and box chain, all in Sterling Silver. The pendant measures 1 1/2" long including the bail, by approximately 1 1/8" wide and since it is somewhat dimensional, it is 3/16" deep. In excellent vintage condition, marked " 925 CNA Thailand" on the reverse. Estimated to date from the 1980s but it could be as recent as the early 1990s.
