Hello everyone.
I have had this ring since 2007 and love to wear it!
It is double sided and the centre section swivels so you can wear it with either side showing. I think from memory the type of decoration is called Niello.
It is marked "Made in Siam". My understanding of this mark, as opposed to the "Siam Sterling" mark, is that it is an earlier ring, before the name changed to Thailand...... what do you think???
Appreciate your thoughts......thanks Judy

I only recently found out (here on CW) about the Niello process which was interesting.
I have a few pieces but nothing this fabulous Judy!

Were you able to find anything out about your flip ring? Because I believe have one made by exact same as you only mine is elephants on both sides. I can't find anything about it and I have also had mine for many years! It's my favorite piece of jewelry! I wish I could post a photo to show you but I can't since its your post. Let me know would ya please!?
Thanks, Angie
Hello Angie, how great that you have a ring like mine!!
Unfortunately they are very difficult to date, there is a lot of information on google about the Siam Niello Ware itself, but not how to date it!! There is a link to a website in comment number 2 that is very good if you haven't already read it.
Sorry I can't help you (or me) with a date....we will just have to enjoy wearing our rings!!
Thanks Jenni, appreciate the love as always:-)
