I agree , [and thats a dangerous copy].. A desired pattern ring, but a authentic is hard to find...
These copies pop up on German eBay a lot. The seller is pretty slick. They will sell one,,wait a month,,then offer another.. Be careful out there!
Thanks both. Another one bites the dust! What makes you so sure it's a copy? I have had it for a long time and I didn't buy it on eBay, where the fake rings are very obvious fakes.
a real ring can turn up anywhere!...
There are certain details missing. And,,on a nice silver ring,,always the polished inner band!
If I'm not mistaken the original pattern is a two-piece ring. The band, and the skull with flowers soldered to it.
This ring shows us that it's one-piece that's casted. Also the inside of the skull and flowers should be hollow ( if I can remember it right ).
M. , This pattern is correct. Usually a one piece press... There are some hollow skull rings,,,a soldered on edelweiss flower I don't think I've seen but I'll check some of mine..
Anyone have one please post...
What is there to discuss, traces of casting are visible on the ring
yes,, he is just wondering if an original has a soldered on skull and edelweiss..
