    Hiya beautiful ladies, awesome video and the bone thing is for making Fishing Nets. I fished Commercially for many years, and that is what we used to make our fishing net's, they would be different sizes, the widths of the needle would be for the size of the holes of the net's. And string would be wound around the needle. You can tell that one was used a lot, and they are still used today, and are used for repairing or making of net's.
    I hope yall have a awesome blessed day.
    Cya! 😺🐟 out!

The back of the stone settings are open..that's usually for previous stones..it's been battered by rocks is all..how lovely to find!

    Fleur, I think it may be a good sign that the inside of the ring has “breathing holes” which are a functional ring element meant to help with luminosity, setting, maintaining, and wearing the ring. The fact that the stones are all intact tells me it’s a quality setting. Maybe my old eyes want to see something that’s not there but I thought there were remnants of laurel leaves on the outside of the band. I can’t tell if the stones are round or square. It’s a beautiful ring and I hope you take it to a reputable jeweler to test the metal and stones. Nevertheless, it’s treasure!’ ❤😊

    8:57 Yardley -- would it be the lid of a stick cologne? It is pretty big though for cologne, wonder if it were for a container of scented powder??? ok, another guess -- would the bone with the half circle carved out be for lifting a military button away from the uniform to polish the button without getting the polish on the uniform? maybe it is too thick for that, however...

    The object at 26:20 looks a bit like the end of a fishing net needle. The ring is fascinating and intriguing! The other kind of ring given to a wife after years of marriage is a trilogy ring, a ring having 3 stones representing the past, the present and the future, similar to the idea of the eternity ring.

    Channel set stones almost never fall out of their setting. Not being magnetic only means that the ring doesn't contain any ferrous metals. Agree with the others that you should take the ring to a jeweler who is a gemologist and let the ring be examined. A gemologist will be able to ID the stones give you an approximate age of the ring based on their cut.

    Try some Goddard's silver polish on it. If it cleans up then it's silver or silver plated.
    The bone thing might be a button polisher, though i couldn't find one exacly the same so not sure.
    There was also a Barker Bros (ltd) pottery manufacturer in Longton, stoke on trent, and Cafeteria could be a pattern or trade name.

    The little horse is a wonderful find for you Kate, and in such good condition too. The winner of the day for me though, was the ring, totally thrilling and well spotted Fleur. I agree with @rockreader4298 about gemstone testing but I would assume that a reputable jeweller clean the ring first, they will know if it is a precious metal which will be a signpost that the actual settling would most likely be of gemstone quality and seeing they are clear, I hope your wish comes true for diamonds. Please keep us all posted on the outcome. - It is so exciting

Love Kate little horse and the pleasure on her face and in her eyes was just delightful. Keep safe you lot and love to Oscar.

    Even though the metal of the ring isn't the best quality, the gemstones have held up remarkably well, which leads me to think they could very well be diamonds, or diamond chips. That ring was an amazing find Fleur. Kate, your terra cotta horse is a wonderful find as well. I thought that bone thing with the scoop looked like something used for weaving, sort of like a shuttle or maybe a fid, perhaps? Lovely finds my lovelies. The pinky/orangey/iridescent glass is very striking, I hope you kept it since it wasn't shown in the roundup. I also think the sherd is from the Barker College cafeteria in New South Wales Australia. Stranger things have been known to happen.
