That's a nice looking ring. I am less sure about this than the last one you posted but am inclined to give it a thumbs up 👍. I have a similar ring albeit it looks less grumpy. The eyes are a different shape and obviously don‘t have the red glass adornments. However, the marks inside are the same: silver content, 835; inverted triangle; 'PA' inside a box. My ring is more heavily worn so the markings are less clear but I am pretty sure it's authentic.

Looks ok to me, except for the eyes. Check for casting flaws, under a jewelers loupe. The cut stones don’t look period to me. They may have been replaced at some point. Stones set in eyes during the period were usually “cabs” (cabochons)- meaning they looked like smooth spheroids rather than cut stones. This was common during the early and mid deco period (TR period) and before.

Could be an old beat up original.. You really got to give a look as Mike says in the recesses and around for faults..

Clean out that triangle hallmark! A toothpick,,small stiff brush,,maybe compressed air. The mark inside should not be worn away inside..

The eyes were not done well at all.. Heres a topic on the different cuts used.:

Even the font in the hallmarks are the same. As for the eyes I heard this was an optional extra.
P.s Gaspare would you like to sell your ring?

Thanks mate. I have looked at both yours and mine they where definitely stamped from the same die. My ring was ground dug hence the grubby appearance (I have left it basically untouched) I did just tonight decide to give it a brush with a soft toothbrush to reveal some more of the finer details.
P.s would you be interested in selling your ring?
Kind regards

Brodieb , welcome to the forum.... I have this pattern but sorry nothing for sale right now.

Yes sometimes it was a option when you ordered your ring for 'Gems' or already in at Retailers.. The eyes were either smooth or rose cut.. Simple cuts. Refer to the link on the cuts etc. and,,happy hunting!...,G.
