A ring for a ring: Tiffany & Co. jewelry worth thousands dropped in Annapolis Salvation Army red kettle

One donor answered the ring of the Salvation Army bell with a ring of her own — and two bracelets.

Capt. Ryan Vincent, commander of the Salvation Army in Annapolis, said a woman came up to a kettle worker outside the Festival at Riva shopping center on Tuesday, slipped the jewelry into the slot of the donation bucket, said “Merry Christmas” and walked away.
 
One of the bracelets, made of yellow gold by Tiffany & Co., was valued at $6,000 by a jeweler. The Salvation Army sold the bracelet for $1,500 worth of donation money.
