    Ewww, snakes. I also made my own gaiters out of some rubber and just use tape to hold them in place. I will let you be now but just wanted to say one more time, thanks once again for all the information you gave me. Wishing you many many more great finds and till next time, happy hunting. Em.

    old gold ring

    Your last post just confused me and I think you meant to say your ring was made by William alone between 1854-1855 not 1884 or 1885? That was way before mine was around. You're so lucky to have found that. It's amazing. I'd be wearing that with pride if I were you. Unfortunately I won't be able...

    old gold ring

    Thank-you so much Mark. This definitely has confirmed to me that my ring too is by Lamborn & Wagner. You've made my day! I now have an idea of when it was made which is what I wanted more than anything to know. Could you please tell me which book these marks appeared in? Many many thanks, Em...

    old gold ring

    Hello Mark. What an awesome find. I was wondering if you still own this ring and if so, are you able to take a close up of the hallmarked area? I need a close up to compare it to a ring that I have and would like to see if the letters stamped are in the same style script as the one I own. I...
