Pretty painted cup and silver ring

[aDawn]

Hi all,

   I picked up this cup at an estate sale and found a ring inside. I asked the lady running the sale if the ring was for sale and she said she'd sell the ring with the cup for $4.00. Kind of an odd pairing, but I wasn't about to complain as the ring is stamped 925 and it fits I'm wondering how to tell if it's real turquoise, how old it might be, and a value would be nice to know if anyone has an estimate.

The cup is very thin and stands two or three inches tall. Any information or guesses to age or value would be great.

As always, thanks for your time and help!

...and the ring

Ring could be anywhere from 60`s to 90`s !!  Pretty common design seen at a lot of gift/tourist shops !!  Sterling was used a lot before price of silver went up !! Now except for better makers you see mostly plated rings !!  Stone looks like lesser quality turquoise, don`t see the variations that you would in top quality stone !!

Okay thanks. Now I can wear it and not worry
