Fine Antique French Sterling Silver 2” Napkin Ring, Foliage Accented Bands
Fine antique French hallmarked sterling silver 2” napkin ring with raised or bas relief style laurel foliate accented bands, "Andre Paul Quimper 1919" inscription or dedication and wonderful condition! Marked with the post-1878 French Minerve or Minerva hallmark, the tiny number “1” within that mark means it’s in .950 silver (95% pure and higher than the .925 standard for “sterling” silver). I could not find a silversmith mark, they are often tiny.YES, a single here but one of several superb antique and vintage sterling silver napkin rings that we're adding today (and in the weeks ahead) so be sure to browse our current offerings to build a collection fit for royalty :). We’ve amassed over 100 great old mostly French sterling napkin rings over the years and I’m working on them now. They're great mixed & matched around your table, wonderful to find a set of twelve or more matching pieces but who could be so lucky. And, isn't it much neater if all are unique, each with a history...a
