Description
This was one of the first napkin rings I bought as part of my collection of Art Deco napkin rings.It measures 1 1/4" high and 2" in diameter, weighing in at .910 Troy ounces.
It is marked with the French Minerva mark with the number 2 for .800 silver.
It also bears a maker's mark, whose characters are indistinct, but I believe I can make out "LC".
I love the geometric design on this one, which reminds me of needlepoint. I have found several examples of this type of technique, but I don't know what it is called.
Over the last year, my collection has focused on octagonal, hexagonal, rectangular, diamond, triangular, and oval shapes, so I'm selling my round or non-Art Deco pieces.
I hope you love this beautiful ring.
