I recently acquired this Arts and Crafts ring and I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts as to maker and place of origin. It was purchased on the east coast of the US (at the big Brimfield antique market a couple of weeks ago). Thanks
Does it have any markings? on your second photo at the back of the ring is there a mark, if so, is it possible to get a closer look.
Wow! Love it!
I have some with those leaves and Jewels1900 told me they are typical of American Arts and Crafts.

Welcome to CW! :-)
Always a pleasure to see such jewelry posts, please.... Post more :-D
We may have passed each other at Brimfield! This is a great find!
Thanks everyone for your comments. Peasejean55, there aren't any marks on the ring; what looks like a mark in the photo is a spot where the ring was sized. Kyratango, thank you for the information; your jadeite ring is beautiful. And davyd286, yes we might have been standing right next to each other in Brimfield without even knowing it!
Yes, american. This leaf work was used by many jewellers so its hard to attribute. Used to be able to find them often but not so much anymore. Love the double stone.
Thank you Jewels1900.
