Ring holder I.D please.
« on: May 16, 2020, 08:51:09 AM »
Seeing Eugenie's ring holders reminded me about a charity shop find from last year that I couldn't find on the GTS site.
Any help would be appreciated.

It's 8.5cms across.

Looking for something else I found one like this online which was attributed to the Yugoslavian company Zajecar crystal. They also made a range of pieces with the same scalloped rim many of which bear labels. Sorry I can't  show you a photo as it was copyrighted and I'm useless at links.

Well. there is al lot to tell about this ring holder. First of all....... sorry..... it is not antique not vintage nor old.  It dates from the 1980s. Is made by RCR  in Italy at Colle di Val d'Elsa. It is a single piece, not a part of a trinket set. And..... it is not rare. I could also say..... you see it everywhere, in all countries from the US , Canada, UK, France, Italy,  Denmark. At least that's my experience. If one is looking for a ring holder, big chance that this will be the first one you will find.

The Yougoslavian - ZAJECAR ring holder that NevB meant, is probably this one. Same story, not rare, quite new, single piece etc.

......now I see I took the wrong one out of the showcase..... But in fact no problem because the ring holder showed by theElench is made by RCR too!! Same story more or less for the rest. Sorry for the confusion. But this one has also a variation.

The one I saw was the same as theElench's but was obviously wrongly attributed, which doesn't surprise me!

Thanks for your replies.  I'm also not surprised that it was mis-attributed, when I looked at images of Zajecar crystal they seem to do a lot with wavy rims.  Including the one Eugenie shows.
