If you need help determining if the stone is real or not, look on the back of the setting. If the stone is real, there should be a hole in back for it to breath. Also, if the silver is real and made by a decent jeweler, it should state the purity of the silver somewhere on the piece, also likely on the back. A photo of the back would be very helpful in determining if this is something I want to bid on. Thank you :)
