Hi,
I embedded your image (next time you do it,please).
The maker is Minas Spiridis in Athens,Greece.
Stamped with his signature and Omega Delta 86 number assigned to his workshop in 1980s.
(Compare with the same mark on 18K gold ring).
Regards

In 1969, he moved to New York City and created jewelry which was sold throughout the U.S. and Europe. In 1980 he returned to Greece and opened a workshop in Athens.
