Here are some more pictures, AJ. :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thank you so much, AJ. It arrived in the mail today. I tested it for silver content, and it tests around 800-900; the red isn't dark enough for...
I know it's not the same, but it reminds me very much of a fountain I saw at Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna.[IMG]
That's a fascinating story! I would love to see the pieces if you have pictures of them. Some of my Jewish ancestors also came from...
Thank you! This is great to know.
I would be a little reluctant to harvest the pot metal fob. I think it's worth more intact, and if you remove the carnelian, you'll inevitably end...
I've sold antique rosaries in the $20-30 range, seldom more. The one with the KoC medal is interesting... It appears to be a Knights of Columbus...
I'm hoping that the reddish-brown areas are just tarnish or tarnish+gilt, instead of plating loss. I have a feeling that, on the buckle, plating...
Sure thing. I'm getting ready for bed now, but I'll get you a pic later. My main concern is the reddish-brown tone on the edges of some of the...
A while back, I saw another (plain; no cameo) bog oak locket for sale. It had a similar carved design on the inside.
I like it! Judging by the pin and clasp, it's antique. It reminds me a bit of cut steel jewelry; perhaps the stamped rosettes on it were meant to...
I've been thinking about buying this item, but I can't tell if it's a genuine Tughra mark or a maker's mark? What do you think? Is it normal for...
In a much belated update to this post, the locket tested as 10k gold, but I'm not sure if other metals could pass the streak test, so I'm leery to...
Here is the amethyst-purple one. The discolored areas you see on the cameo itself are just glare or a bit of grime; the color is pretty uniform...
More shell ones. A few are pinkish-white shells. Then I also have an antique-looking Wedgwood one and an unique amethyst-purple one in an ornate...
Bronwen, I'm blown away that you were able to identify the signature from that one picture alone! I have a couple other shell ones that also have...
A monstrosity. Perhaps it was an heirloom piece, and its owner wanted to wear it without actually wearing it. If a man inherited it, it might be...
Some cameos to show! I bought a nice lot of them, so I'll be sharing some over the next couple days. These are my favorites. None of them have...
Gorgeous necklace! I believe that mark is for Judith Jack, but I am not 100% certain.
