We spent some moments wondering what exactly it was, coming down on ornament for the younger lady, perhaps something to be worn from the ear. There was writing but no hall mark (at least we thought not), so perhaps a couple of pounds for two from a stall in the market.
There was then debate about how it attached to the ear, with me opting for pushing the clip at one o'clock through the hole in the ear lobe, while BH, who has pierced ears, thought that perhaps the idea was to hang this ring off some more delicate ring, with this last being pushed through said hole.
Thinking further this morning, I think that the small knob on the very end of the clip suggests intended for pushing through. So no additional ring. In any event, now headed for metal recycling along with various other odds and ends, having decided against placing it on our front wall and seeing how long it would have taken to go. See reference 1.
PS: quite impressed with the close-up job done by the telephone here, without my doing more than tapping the camera spot on the screen a few times. Perhaps it liked the bright morning light in our west facing kitchen. Click to enlarge to get it in all its once Nokia now MS glory
