Found these today. I have a hunch they're late Georgian or early Victorian. Won't cry too hard if they're not. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Usually when I find shells like that they're plated. Cheaply. Nice to know there are some silver ones to be found. Those old curling medals...
IIRC the American Belleek gave rise to Lenox. Lots of fine porcelains were made in New Jersey for a while in the 19th century.
A turn indicator maybe? Something along those lines.
They were made in factories. I've seen a few, but never a whole necklace.
The round bit looks like a mah jong counter; I bet the character displayed changes if you find a way to move it.
Yep. Just chiming in. Coral.
Just "small stuff" in general probably. It's the wrong shape for ciggies or saccharine tablets. No striker for wood matches, but it would hold...
It's essentially a snap.
I always wanted the black dolls as a kid, but never got any. Seeing those prices I wish Mom had gotten me some!
I've seen the clasp before, but not too often. It's usually on artisan pieces.
The diamond-shaped label may have said Made in Japan or something similar. India uses rectangles.
If I see something on the front of a dish, it's usually a spot where the plating has worn off.(sigh)
if they've been completely restrung; the findings on these are 1990s or later.
You done good. The foiled glass bracelet with the flowers looks like it's Chinese beads, but the red ones are Venetian without a doubt. That...
...especially since they look like lucite from here. They're the wrong color for any amber I've seen, and those "stripes" aren't anything I've...
Welcome!
Looking at the string ends I think it's original. It could easily be mid-1950s costume. Czech beads assembled in...good question.
The chain looks like something Renoir might have done in the 50s. They didn't make a ton of silver, most of their output was copper, but they did...
The original pearls may have fallen out or been damaged; the ones currently in the brooch are fairly recently made.
Separate names with a comma.
