would love to buy and turn into a ring but I can't as it is enameled it can't be soldered in the normal way.

No i purchased it to make a ring. It is a pin as it is.

Hi this has to bonded. not soldered. Jewelers here use that technique all the time. Special metal bonding agents i get from jewelers supplies. I have to find a ring band in my rings to use.

definetly not soldering. maybe the enameling will survive but the coral will be pale later on, atleast taking out before soldering.

is it a hallmark what to see on foto ?

that's what I meant this can't have a ring band attached by soldering as the enamel will melt and the coral will crack.

I would take it to a jeweler and have a bezel on a ring made to fit. Treat it as you would treat an old coin. No danger of heat damage and you can always have it taken out later.
