ESPO is for the jewelry-making family of Joseph Esposito. If it also has "SIG" for signature, this is specifically for the latest generation Joseph Esposito. Otherwise, it's likely for an earlier generation, as old as 1910, when the family first opened their business. A previous reviewer said the 1950s. That may have been when one of the Espositos was born but was not when the business opened. To determine its age, I suggest a vintage/antique jewelry specialist. The older marks also look just that. Older. Usually, a lot more wear and an irregular stamp, as if made by hand. I know these things because I've researched and sold many of both the older and newer. You can find more details on the Esposito history in an online search.

It's a designer of affordable jewelry. Espo, or ESPOSITO was the jeweler's name beginning in the 1950's. A solitaire clear stone isn't a diamond, but a zircon. Zircon is a natural gemstone that is very close to diamond in hardness. Has great clarity and reflects beautifully is cut correctly. It's not a fake.
