It is sterling silver. Hard to make out the date mark, but looks like 1886 for Birmingham. Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria was 1887, so that...
I bought this pair of rosettes at the flea market a few days ago for 50 cents each. The one on the left has some green enamel on it. I haven't...
Ouch. I wouldn't pay much for one in that condition. I've taken book-binding classes, and it's relatively easy to reattach a leather cover, but...
Thanks! :)
[ATTACH] Picked this up for 2.5 euros today. Any thought on what stone it might be? I'd think turquoise, but it doesn't look like what I'd think...
Happy birthday, Marko!
Thanks! Thank you. ☺ the locket is gold over 835 silver. I've always liked these, so I'm happy I finally found my own. They're growing on me...
Today's finds. Brooch is hallmarked for 1891 Birmingham. Coral necklace needs to be restrung (it was a bag of loose beads that I then strung on...
I'm almost positive those faux turquoise beads are Czech. I picked up 8 strands of them at a flea market in the Czech Republic.
Wow! Great sleuthing. I doubt mine will get anywhere near that price, but now I have a good idea how much a similar one sold for. I'm pretty sure...
Darn, I wish I had realized they were cuff links when I bought them. I paid 3 euros each, thinking they were meant to be worn individually, rather...
Pretty small. About 1.57 inches/4 cm tall.
I'm working on a Young Adult fantasy novel set in a German-inspired world. :)
I purchased it at a flea market in Paris, so probably French. :) How old do you think it is? Could it be Georgian based on the pin length?...
Growing up, I was fascinated with swords and medieval weapons. Now I have my very own...even though it's small enough to pick my teeth with, haha....
Is it possible for the cuff buttons to have come in an unmatching set? I bought two niello ones from the same seller--the vines one and a...
That's such a fantastic idea! I've seen some charms made with stag beetle parts, and I bet a scorpion would look incredible on one. Or a...
I'll have to test it. I assumed it was a costume piece, but something about the locket-pendant combo set off my radar...
I know, it's shocking how much they go for. :(
These seem too large for that, at over 2 cm (nearly .8 inches) in diameter.
