Looks like a polished agate in a silver bezel setting.

The stone looks like quartz. It's very beautiful! The setting looks antique to me, I'd have it appraised.

That is a white banded agate. The cut is a cabochaun. Agate is very common so the stone isn't worth anything. However, the setting looks to be handcrafted silver which is where any worth would be. That said, wear it as an everyday piece.

I don't know what kind of stone it is, but you have a very nice hand.

Not familiar with Teh Bling -- is that a west coast jewelry wholesaler?

That is an agate, which is pretty worthless as far as stones go, but the hand-made silver setting is nice and could be valuable if you can date it.

Tell the Mrs. I would have it professionally cleaned, buy a nice, simple silver chain for it, and wear it against a black turtleneck sweater, weather permitting. :)

WARNING: If you find another one, do NOT put them together, as they will form the Diamond of Pantheos! Leonard Maltin is on the way; in the meantime, avoid Barbra Streisand at all costs!

It's really very nice. Bold and delicate at the same time. May your wife wear it in good health!
