Have to think I might have been the first serious jewelry buyer (by some divine miracle) because someone would have grabbed everything I got. Who...
Oh, I'll have to check that. Thanks!
These were at the recent estate sale where I got the D&E and Hattie Carnegie piece. Obviously they have been removed from something?? Anyone seen...
Agree, what a find! Would make an awesome display.
Actually the pin didn't catch my eye at first, but then turned it over and thought, if anything was ever figure 8 puddling, that has to be it,...
It does take time... not too many ways around that. "Hands on", also essential. I have learned a lot here and on other sites, a great resource...
D&E was a jewelry maker, never signed their pieces. Has quite the following. Not sure mine is that, let's see what others think. Some info:...
Yes, got pretty excited when I sorted the whole business out myself. Anyone have a WP account to see what that one sold for?
I've been buying/reselling costume for ages. Basically go on the "looks" of something or signatures, and never got into the D&E identification...
I took a look on Ebay as well, thought we had a match! But (crazy as it sounds) this auction is only for a single card --not a deck. How weird...
Evelyb, lots of great finds there. I love the Chinese bead necklace, looks like an especially nice one. Late to an estate sale, screwed up the...
Much easier to see on the white background. I agree with AJ as to dating and material. In the future a photo of the back of the clasp as well --...
Always show a photo of the clasp if possible. (Approx length of the chain wouldn't hurt, too. :)) All can help ID with age, etc. What an...
Agree that it is a very cool and unusual looking antique piece, would be a pity to scrap. Good suggestion to list above scrap.
How big are the round sections across? They look bigger in this photo! So pretty!
Just adding that it looks great. Awesome find. :)
This seems to have a similar cut to the crystals. Obviously not the same necklace, but signed by a maker (that was in business from 1860-1931.)...
Search Ebay under "open backed crystal necklace", order from highest first which will pull up antique/vintage pieces. The better ones (and this...
Absolutely gorgeous, definitely older. (Thinking 20s, maybe a tad earlier.) I've never seen one quite as detailed as this, never seen a double...
Am I the only one that thinks this merits a bit more research? I can see why the OP posted it as a question. Would a made-in-China piece have a...
