No problem, I know what you meant!
Sometimes, it takes a village! I found this site on French jewelry makers, a little info in 2nd paragraph....
As you all realized, the 18K piece is not mine, sigh... @Marote , thanks for the links! I guess gold-filled or heavy rolled gold is likely the...
[ATTACH] I had no luck finding a useful link to anything labeled "ORIA3" as the only text match I got led to an old Pinterest page in French for a...
A good candidate for Labradorite. Have you tried researching the artist to see if they have info on the design and stone?
With the new "kilt pin" search term, look what I found! https://www.rubylane.com/item/1687510-1670/WJ-S-Sterling-Silver-Citrine-Sword
Thanks, Debora! I was thinking it was similar to a kilt pin, just narrower! I think you nailed it! As for whether the stone is original or not, I...
This sterling silver brooch is marked as such along with what looks like "W. J. & S..." so I'm guessing sons? I first though the style was Arts &...

Yea, Marko! It's a beauty! @Aquitaine, I don't see that tool menu on my page. Which browser do you use?

Very cool! I lean towards it being made in the last 20 years, based on similar inlay I've seen. The round gem looks green to me, perhaps a peridot?
Yes, you can wait for the price to come down. Or, sell some gold you don't love to buy a frame!
I would think a bezel frame with two rings at the top, left and right, to connect to chains would make this a lovely necklace!
Lovely, I vote newer, too. That is not a period pin clasp.
Gorgeous! And the two manufacturers may well have worked together to produce such pieces. I love the color combo!
Thanks for the add'l info. And, I like your creative earring modification!
Super, AJ! Yes, I imagined the arm, thanks for the correction and the dating. Which part of the marks indicates Moscow? True, you don't need to...
Looks like a Neiger Brothers piece to me. They used Czech glass made in Gablonz. They were known for Egyptian Revival designs. Great find!
I was surprised by the marks on these silver earrings whose stones I believe are charoite. The .875 mark is accompanied by a star with an arm...
