Just a shot in the dark, but I found a reference to an Alfred E Rego (Alfred Estainlao De Rego Senior), Honolulu online in The Manufacturing Jeweler Volume 73 Page 12. He is mentioned in a voluntary bankruptcy list without an occupation, but it may still have potential for your retailer or otherwise.
I find Alfred elsewhere listed a a jeweler in Honolulu. He was born in Honolulu in 1893 and died there in 1963. His father was born in the Azores.

You are welcome. Do you know is this ring has a connection to Hawaii?

No idea. I bought a vintage japanese music/jewellery box from a charity shop. I found 2 rings in the ring compartment, one was this silver ring and another is a gold ring made in Birmingham in 1890.
