Lot of Five Sterling Silver Rings size 6 to 6 7/8

Paula says - "I've gathered these rings into groups to save me time and you money. All rings in one group will be in one size category. For example: Size 6 to size 6 7/8 will be grouped together. What you see is what you get.

All rings are sterling silver unless otherwise noted. Many will have the following marks on them but I will not mention this for each ring: .925, STERLING, STER. But I will let you know how many have artist or maker's hallmarks. I won't tell you what the marks are or who they belong to except for the Bell Trading Company hallmark. I'll also provide you with the height at the front of the tallest ring in the group.

And finally, many of these rings are New Old Stock (NOS) - they have never been used but are not contemporary, many from the 70s and 80s. I will let you know how many in each group are NOS."

"When we buy estate or personal jewelry lots, we often receive rings that are Native American style but can't be verified as Native American made. If an item doesn't have a hallmark that we can attribute to a specific aritst we can't legally sell it as Native American made. Read more.

Our Rescue Mission
of Native American Indian Jewerly and Artifacts

We are in the vintage Native American jewelry rescue business and are passionate about finding new homes for used and vintage jewelry and artifacts. That's why we purchase Native American pieces from estates, inheritances, collection downsizing and New Old Stock (NOS) inventory from closed stores.

Often people contact us after taking a box of Native American jewelry to their local pawn shop and find that a pawn shop is mainly interested in melt value of the metals and not in preserving the beautiful historic pieces. To hear that people have considered selling these treasures for melt value makes us truly sad.

Melt value is usually far below what we would offer for the jewelry. Yet we can't pay retail price for items because of the time and cost involved in finding new homes for them. We have to research, often repair and restore the jewelry, photograph and list each item on our website, and sometimes hold pieces in inventory for years until the right buyer comes along.

We hope you'll find something special in our vintage shop that will complete yet another circle of our jewelry re-homing mission.

NOTE: Items in our Vintage Shop are either USED or NEW. They might come from inheritances, estate sales, private collections, and store liquidations. Many items are brand new (NOS, New Old Stock) and in perfect condition while others may show tarnish, scratches and other signs of use. Major issues will be described in detail and shown in photos. Vintage Shop items are sold as described and are not returnable.

Patina	A dark or colored film of oxidation that forms naturally on metal exposure to air and other elements. It is often valued for its aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Why isn't this item called Native American?

The US Department of the Interior Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 and its recent Amendments require that items described as Native American or Indian be made by an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe. Furthermore, government regulations suggest that all attributions include the Native American Indian's name, tribe and federal tribal enrollment number. Because it is impossible to identify the artist for many vintage items, even if they are authentic Indian made items, we cannot and will not use the words Native American or Indian in association with such pieces.
