The listing, Old Antique Ship heart Ring has ended.
Up for auction is a old ship mans Dangling Heart Ring,this ring was bought at an estate sale,the owner was a man that made his living by fishing,the people told me that the Dangling Heart was to give him luck to catch fish,he must have wore it on his little finger,as It Is a size 6& 1/2,I tried to take the best pictures that would give you close Ups of it,It is silver in color but I do not see any markings in it that say sterling,however it is very different it has what looks to be a wheel ,witch would be what you guide your boat and attached in the center is a Dangling Heart,It has black under finish with 4 round points on the front,the people told me that was for north,east,south,and west,It is a very nice Ring,It could use a good cleaning,a good solid ring,If you are into ships then it's a great Ring it is very bold looking and I would guess it to be about 50 or more years old,It is very nice and yes a woman could wear it,place your bids as it is the first one I have seen.
