Kiddie ring makers signature.

I found 2 very small rings that are marked sterling with the name kiddlsen or something similar. Can anyone read the name and tell me more about the maker ? Thanks

All I can see is STERLING. At first glance I thought the top pic said NOCAFFINE. I think I need coffee... WITH caffeine...

We may need some different pics to help with this one.

These look like decent rings. Are you sure they are kiddie rings?

DCMatt Oh yeah they are kiddie rings. They barely fit my pinkie tip. I dont know how to take a better pic and suggestions? Thanks for the help.

Those are TINY! But they might fit my wife. She has the smallest hands of any adult I know.

For what it's worth, the ring on the right is a similar mounting style to my mother's engagement ring (mid 1950's). Although I think they made them like that for many years prior. Older diamonds were cut to gather light only from the top - hence the enclosed mounting. Newer stones gather light from all angles and have more open settings.

Very nice!

I believe you have a "Kiddiegem" ring. . . very popular on the
carnival scene back in the '20's & '30's.

I found this one this summer. . .

I found one like the engagement ring at an old dance hall awhile back. I learned that indeed it was what poor folks used because they could afford no more. The workmanship and detail was nice, but its silver and the stone....get this....its not even glass but plastic.

And my ring size is 5 1/2 so yeah it could be for adults.

Man, the things I learn here...

Kiddiegem.

Here's a TNet post from last year:

1955 Kiddiegem ad. That's the year my parents married. Maybe my mom should take a closer look at her engagement ring...
