    Hello Friends,
    I bought this for myself a few weeks ago, unfortunately it doesn't fit.
    I wore it for a week, it was the most noticed thing about me.
    I'm crazy about the design, the wear, the vivid blue enamel.
    It was a big man who first wore it, as it's been sized down, and it's still a bit too big for me,( I was afraid it would slip off ).

    I'd love to know something more about it, any thoughts?
    Thanks to you all, dear and knowledgeable friends,
    and Happiest of Holidays!,
    Tony.

      Neat ring, reminds me of the Lowenbrau beer logo. Cheers!

      You might want to research this a bit. I was in Munich during the 1972 Olympics pulling security duty after the problems and shooting were over. There was a flood of items that hit the market and not all were authorized. Anything related to that event has a value if you can connect it. I bought a mint set of the 10 mark coins and wish now I had bought all I could and other items to compliment them. When I see something like this it immediately turns a light bulb on in my memory.

      Hi Budek, great ring. My Dad had a ring with this same design.
      Not the same setting and background. It does not have a solid background, its more like a cutout design.
      I inherited it when I was 15, it means the world to me.
      As Blacksiep stated it has always reminded me of Lowenbrau logo.

      I pulled my Dad's ring out. His looks more like a Dragon, than a Lion.
      I'll post it. Memory is always the first to go. LoL

      Seeing as your ring led to Aim posting hers I thought that I should come back to yours & provide this link for the Lion & it's heraldic meaning.
