Help with Orange Blossom ring!

[Liv430]

I have had a ring stamped orange blossom for some time and have very little information on it. I took it to one jeweler who suggested it might be an early 1970's orange blossom ring called star mist but he couldn't confirm this. It is stamped orange blossom and 18k in the band, and P20 as well. Any help would be appreciated! I cant seem to find much on this particular ring or the company. Thanks!

I think P20 means it is plated metal.

I thought plated would GP, but I could be wrong. In quickly looking it up, the P can be used to signify Plumb gold? Which indicates that the item is at least the karats shown on the stamp. Thanks for the help!

I am no expert so I may well be wrong

It's possible that it's Traub; they had a line called Orange Blossom in the early 1900s. The thing that's throwing me off is that I would assume it'd also have their maker's mark if it was Traub.

 

[Liv430]

I agree. There doesnt appear to be any maker's mark in the band, though it may have been resized at one point

I *think* that you can have an Orange Blossom ring that is not stamped Traub. Also your jeweler is right In the ballpark I've seen references to this ring with a late 70's date. Here is an interesting thread about it:

They actually reference the Orange Blossom misty ring in that thread. I only found one pic of it from a listing on Etsy that sold in 2012 and of course no picture of the inside of the band but I have seen these rings with just "Orange Blossom" I've also seen "Traub Orange Blossom" and the double "T" hallmark in a circle with Orange Blossom so I think it depends on the year. Also maybe the PT20 is a model stamp.

It is a gorgeous ring though!

Hi! I've been looking for a ring this style for awhile, a family member had a similar one I always loved. Please let me know if you are interested in selling. Thanks!

This was my engagement ring in 1971. Starmist, by Orange Blossom. It was the most beautiful ring I had ever seen, and I lost it in 1976. You are one lucky woman.
