I've always called the moon glow.
Hmmmm, I think I have a treen piece that was used to put these in.
Mid-late Victorian, could very well be gold, not unusual to have no marks or as others have said, the shank could have been modified or replaced....
My owl set is set in gold, at least the pin backing and the ring shank and shoulders are gold.
This looks like it's copying the form of a 'cathedral bottle'. They were used to hold condiments, olives and capers, etc. There were also...
I lightened the picture, the stones look like they could be rose cut, although not all Bohemian garnet jewelry used rose cut stones and cabochons,...
You beat me to it. :)
Just wanted to elaborate on the clasp. These are still made and used today. The way you have it closed isn't fully correct. I apologize if you...
Are the dark beads red or black, I can't tell on my computer, they look reddish. This looks like a slight vintage -modern onyx or glass and rice...

komokwa, thank you. Being here in Massachusetts I see quite a few blue, red and mustard painted baskets. I've never seen a gold one, and I should...
komokwa, taking a closer look it seems as though it IS paint, mostly faded but visible in some areas, the flash really brings it out. This is a...
komokwa, can you think of a wood that would turn a burnished goldtone patina (but not painted) used for a basket ? I have another large basket...
Thank you komokwa. :) Mine isn't really red, just darker than the one you posted, more a darker brown. For some reason my camera turned it red. It...
