These are out of my field of study,,but,,The seller is a master jewelry counterfeiter. He does occasionally/rarely sell a authentic ring.
I'd get more/ better photos before purchasing it!

Yes, Uli is a little "gangster".
He has some good rings - he buys a lot of old jewelry.
And for sure he makes his own ones.
In exact this ring i am not real sure. But i know he had a good one of this pattern in silver and also a good one of the Bismarck-pattern.

Time to continue here.
Saw this pattern some times in silver.
This one is brass with an heavy silver plating in still real good condition.

Well, not a ring but,,,

Don't really know what they are.. Maybe German American Bund pieces? OR, just early weird Nazi German..

They are a either Perspex or Bakelite...

Anyone seen or have similar?

Wow - never seen somewhat similar out of this material.
From the pics it looks like out from 3 different pieces in the 3 colours, baken together like a cake and the swastika overed with paint

- you got it!,,,3 separate pieces,,painted Swas...

Bakelite was in use by the early 1920s...
All nations tried/played around with it for various reasons.
The pin set up kind of looks US , but in the early/mid 1920s trade was world wide so anyone could have been using it.. Maybe someone has similar and we'll get to see more...

Thanks friends!

Markings:

On the second pic ring 1 and 2 have only "800". On the 3. ring you can´t see real the stamp - there is inside a second band for downsizing. Ring 4 and 5 have austrian marks (tukan) and the last has no marks - it is silvered brass/copper.

Wow G.! - You got it!
I think i understand your idea and i think you are 100 % right.
Black swas, white/silver round in red shield ist german (black/white/red).
White/silver swas on red field is austrian - colours of austria red/white cool

Here the next promised partypin pattern.
Exact same style as one of the ring above. Only here is a white enamel around the swas (black/white/red). Ring has a large size, some wearing, "800" mark on backsite plate, well made seam and a little damage in the red enamel.
But, what is this? Behind the enamel it looks like there is a seperate brass? plate.
Sombody here for explaining this to us?

Here some pics.
Enjoy!
Opinions are welcome!

I could be wrong odal... One of two things to me..

Part of the enamelling process?, or possibly to add a crystal reflection as such to the finished piece?..

- so much to see and always learn. Don't think I've ever seen that!
If you used a pin is it hard? or foil like and packed in? [careful not to damage].

I think your other similar ring might have the same.....

I think Svenga got it!

Good eyes G.!
Yes the other ring has a little enameldamage at the red one too.
And behind this enamel again is a kind of brass.

In all hard to say, but yes, i think too it is a kind of thinn sheet or foil. On both rings this, i call it now so, foil has symetrical structures.
In my opinion real to reflekt and brake incoming light through the very glasy enamel.
And, if i remeber right, brass is one of the best materials to hold enamel.
Thanks Svenga! Thanks G.!

This is real hot glass enamel, right?
If so than answer is a tricky nature of this kind red color enamel. It will not lay on this low silver content base. With this enamel is pretty hard to work. To "fool" this enamel you can use pure silver 999, which is unacceptable in this case because of its softness. You can make richer silver surface. Or you can go this way with brass liner. There are few more possibilities like to make colorless enamel undercoat etc. Had a lot of "fun" with this enamel in restoration before.

Thanks Hapur for sharing your knowlede here with us!

Yes, for sure glas enamel.
How are these brass liners usually afixed?
Soldered or crimped in? Its not to see on this two rings i have here.

Hi, how it was usually done I do not know. Because today is available that colorless enamel with higher melting point. So today this technology with brass is pretty useless and pain in ******** anyway.
