The figurines are attached to the vases. I agree the vases themselves aren't majolica, they're nicely hand painted.
Majolica by the look of them. Those are Italian Renaissance musicians, not that it means the vases are Italian. The flowers look very much in the...
If you want to while away an hour or several, google on the history of Railway Time. It's fascinating.
More likely to be good glass. Not that it matters.
Billy, it's that bottom dangle? I think it may have had an enamel flower, like the other plaques. Ruth is right, seen them with Czech on but...

The fact that it only says 925 and in the oval. I have a fairly extensive collection of Navajo and other NA jewellery all bought in the US,...
A good Dineh/Navajo maker would have signed this. It's Southwestern in style but probably never saw the coast of the US - that doesn't mean it...
Ah, good thinking, I'll try that. Now I know they exist, makes it easier to search one out. Thank you.
