Hey Santa, if you can't find the first one this'll do https://susanlisterlocke.com/products/gold-paraiba-tourmaline-ring
PIA isn't a name; it's the maker's initials. If it's a Gruen watch, PIA is an English company who made the band for them. Best guess anyway. It...
Yeah well. As long as I'm dreaming anyway. I'll take one of these:...
Somebody hopefully made a pretty penny on that one!
Definitely selling that locally; I know a dealer who loves coral, and no way would I trust eBay with something like that.

Used it today. Bought two necklaces. One was leather with a little bit of sterling. The other.... 8mm coral beads with a 14k clasp. And that...

Blue John in that weight would cost a bomb these days, and I doubt anyone would make an elastic bangle out of it. More likely regular fluorite.
Bought some stuff I shouldn't have this weekend. But "Oh you can have that", was the enameled 830 silver pin. Still need a good shot of the...
