    When Glenn suggested it might be a piece of Hartmanns, I had a look on their website. That ring seems to me somewhat similar to what I can figure out on the photo Nellie posted, but of course I trust your judgement, Tamara, if you've seen a closeup of the ring.

    As for Mary's taste in jewellery, I don't share Gemini's opinion. Thinking of her aquamarine jewellery I can well imagine her wearing a piece like that Hartmanns ring. IMO the particular stone is just too big for that elaborate setting, which makes the ring appear a tad "vulgar" or maybe better "loud" or "laboured" (at least "bemüht" is what I would call it in German), but I've a similar impression with some of Mary's pieces and would rarely think of her taste in jewellery as particularly scandinavian.

    But well, the most important thing for me is that I've managed to post that photo on the first go!
