UK ring size M 1/2, US size 6.5 The ring weighs a good 7.9 grams. It carries an Austro-Hungarian Empire ‘fox head’ hallmark, indicating that the ring was made between 1872 and 1922. It also indicates a fineness of 14K gold /585 gold as well as the city of Vienna. There is also a maker’s mark present (JW).

The gemstone all appear to be natural, and the sapphire shows no signs of heat treatment. The band measures 5mm across at the back.
