Beautiful! Vintage! Moonstone?

The mark belongs to Basken bros of NY circa 1915-1950.

I'll send a link to view for you...love it!

Thank you so much for your reply. I have seen that name thrown around before but the time frame doesn’t match up. I acquired numerous pieces with this Mark but they are all newer pieces. I wonder if the mark is actually a JB rather than a BB. I’ll include photos of another piece with onyx and rutilated quartz, pendant/brooch.

@cactustoclouds

Hmmmm I'm not seeing any J here at all. Those marks featured on your pieces are Cap reversed BB.

Look at Barker & Barker of Providence RI. 1922 they also used this mark starting out. Link to view.

Also, there is an old archived forum on your mark as well. Link to view.

Your ring is older than you think and possible the rest of your pieces as well. You let me know after viewing links..
