Questions & Comments
How do you know how old they are? Where did they come from originally?
Well you can research if you like - here is a bit - this was also a company known for its delicate designs: Guilloche describes a narrow instance of guilloche: a design, frequently architectural, using two curved bands that interlace in a pattern around a central space. Some dictionaries give only this definition of guilloche, although others include the broader meaning associated with guilloché as a second meaning. Note that in the original sense, even a straight line can be guilloché, and persons using the French spelling and pronunciation generally intend the broader, original meaning.[10][11][12] Translucent enamel was applied over guilloché metal by Peter Carl Fabergé on the Faberge eggs and other pieces from the 1880s.[13]
small markings inside of Guilloche - it is either silver overlay or sterling - I don't know precisely - Guilloche was always an expensive ring with a rose enamel design. Hope this helps. KEK
Thank you! You hit the nail on the head. It is very dainty and feminine. It is small with a rose and almost lace like surrounding. It is antique and dainty and I love these. I hope you get it or at least enjoy the auction! Best regards - KEK
