I cleaned it with toothpaste and soft toothbrush nothing harsh and it did clean up and is really a pretty ring. Posted a few more pictures of it and got a few decent shots of the cleaned ring. Looks better in person as most things do.

I wish it were my size.
Just FYI, it is a vintage ring. They were popular in the '70's. This is a great item and I hope people bid well. It's worth it.

It appears to be possibly Native American, Zuni , or Navajo , I believe the color to indicate it is older (color is very good!) Hard to be sure from the photos , but yes Robin is right these were very popular in the 1970's and highly collectible today, because the turquoise of this color is from a particular mine , now closed http://www.silversunalbuquerque.com/m-sleeping_beauty.htm While it was in production they produced 1600 pounds a month, but it's been closed for some time, and not likely to reopen. The style of this ring is called "needlepoint " I believe with the long thin stones, and those two are highly sought after. Do you see anything on it like a mark that might look like a picture or something? Some of the jewelers used "pictographs" like a bear , or the sun , some signed with names , some with scratched signatures, some only letter , some didn't sign at all. It's sometimes referred to as "Old Pawn" or "Dead Pawn" meaning it was sold to a Pawn shop , then probably resold again.Some pieces have changed hands many times.
