Much of this work was hallmarked with the FD mark for Davis. This piece, however, is signed with the AP mark for Abraham Paz, but produced for Davis to be sold at Sanborns, as it is also marked with the eagle assay 22. I've included a pic with the stone shown on a bright light so you can see the beautiful obsidian color. This is a fabulous b...

This classic U.S. Navy ring is something of an oddity—it was custom-made in France! The ring is an older style with shoulders depicing an American eagle surmounting a stars and stripes shield over the letters “USN”. The crown is set with an oval cabochon of almandine garnet surrounded by the words “United States Navy,” the words separated by stars. The garnet has an intense deep red color that contrasts handsomely with the gold. The design elements of the ring suggest an early 20th cen...
