AI Original Diamonique Confirmation:

This ring was manufactured for QVC as part of their proprietary Diamonique jewelry line.
The stamps inside the band break down as follows: 
  • 925: The standard hallmark indicating the ring is made of sterling silver (92.5% pure silver).
  • DQ: The maker’s mark and brand identifier for Diamonique, meaning the solitaire stone is a high-quality cubic zirconia simulated diamond rather than an organic paste stone.

Brand Appeal: Vintage Diamonique pieces carry a dedicated nostalgic following among television shopping history collectors, which helps it retain a premium above basic metal scrap value.
