western germany ring
I have a costume filigree ring with the inscription Western Germany on the back.My understanding is that inscription would place the time of manufacture on or about middle to late 40's as that would be the time in history when there was a Western and Eastern Germany.
Can you confirm this?
Also is there an on line site you could recommend that would carry such jewelry so I can get an idea of its value?
Thank-you.

Thank you for the links.I appreciate it!

This vintage filigree ring you speak of...
Is it considered as costume jewelary?
[ I hate that word-costume jewelary]
Die Kennzeichnung, "Deutschland" zeigt das Stück wurde vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, weil danach, wäre es markiert, zunächst "westlichen Zone Deutschland, US-amerikanische Zone Deutschlands, und so weiter, und nach, dass" Western Deutschland, West-Deutschland, etc. Wenn es die Bezeichnung "Deutschland" ist vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Im Jahre 1946 oder'47, als Deutschland geteilt wurde, sind die Punkte, die entweder in West-oder Ost-Deutschland wurden die Bezeichnung "Bundesrepublik Deutschland" oder "Deutsche Demokratische Republik" (das war der DDR, die weder demokratisch noch eine Republik). Artikel einfach der Aufschrift "Deutschland" Ich würde sagen, fast sicher vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg (es sei denn, sie sind neu, natürlich, nach der Wiedervereinigung).
Translated...
The labeling, "Germany" indicates the piece was before the Second World War, because then it would be checked first "western zone of Germany, U.S. Zone Germany, and so on, and after that" Western Germany, West Germany, etc. If the name "Germany" is before the Second World War. In 1946 oder'47 when Germany was divided, are the points that are either in West or East Germany, the name "Germany" or "German Democratic Republic" (that was the GDR, are neither democratic nor a republic ). Product simply of the word "Germany" I would say, almost certainly before the Second World War (unless they are new, of course, after the reunification).

Thank-you so much.I can't rep you because I messed up the way I posted this and I had just repped you a few seconds ago on another post BUT Thank-you!
Thank-you for the information as I do want to sell it and I need as much background as possible.
I do believe it is costume jewelry.If not I am soon to be rich as it has pearls in it as well.
Thanks again!

I hope I can get something for it. It's a good day when even a few bucks come your way!
I'm assuming it is costume jewelry,because it big and kind of gaudy :)
Thanks for your input!
