Looks to me like amethyst with marcasites. As to age……will leave that up to those more familiar with jewellery. I'd say 40's or earlier.

Agree it appears to be a dark amethyst and pyrite/marcasite.  (It could possibly be a dark iolite stone...but doubt it.  Would need a hands on from a jeweler if you suspect.)

Setting looks like it would be from early/mid 1900's.

It's just the use of the  ::) smiley, which is normally intended as an insult

I realise it's difficult on a mostly American / English forum.

So, what does :::( mean?  

Honestly, I learned something new!  I would have just guessed it meant 4 eyes (like me when I wear glasses!)

I just asked all my family if they knew that was in insult and none of them knew it!  Wow...I could have been insulted forever and didn't know it!  LOL
