I have a lovely old cameo ring that has this mark.

-->W<-- , as well as PATAFLO ..

cameo head upright in front of me with back facing me it is a W.
reversed is PATAFLO

Could someone point me in the right direction please to identify this mark. I have browsed the american marks here and do not see this mark.


Your help will be appreciated and karma will reward you greatly.

Can't say without a photo, but Uncas was a huge manufacturer of rings and it sounds like the Uncas mark double stamped along with a Pat. Apld. or "Patent Applied For"
