This estate find came out of Chicago, IL. This ring is in lovely vintage condition with actual wear from being worn by a female merchant marine.
Storytime: The owner of the ring was called "Mackie", nicknamed from Margaret and she was about 5 feet nothing when she sailed with the navy as a merchant marine. When I was dating my now husband she was apart of the family. My mother in law whose estate this ring ultimately came to was her caregiver. Her stories were amazing and full of grit. She was originally a Chicago South-sider after all. Oh, her stories could peel layers of paint but they were always with cause.
This is just one of her things we were willing to share. The rest we'll keep near and dear.Inquiries encouraged. Feel free to ask further.
But no stories unfortunately. Ring is in excellent, lovely vintage condition. Very clean! **A lot of the dark tones are from the photography. While there is some slight oxidation it is NOT heavy. And mostly on the inner crevices only.*Photos all taken in NATURAL light. No filters, no enhancements and no flash- on an S22 phone cam. Delivers with brand new gift packaging.
