Oddly enough that adds it’s value in my eyes. Someone somewhere thought of this enough or of the owner to fix it when it broke. It doesn’t look...
@Any Jewelry it’s cold to me.
I found another with the same body, different colors. I think it’s definitely revival and probably a mass produced one and not a kit or repair....
That’s because it’s the same item, lol the listing I found was on eBay too so I’m pretty sure it’s the same one! Zooming in on the picture it...
Is this something to be careful of? Is that a bad thing?
That’s your brooch? It’s gorgeous!!

I need to buy a mandrel. It fits where I usually wear my 4’s. With no science at all basing this comment, for some reason I had this idea in my...
Hello everyone, I won a bid for a ring and now it’s arrived. I’m excited to have it but I’m not really sure what I have. It’s described as a...
Ah, gotcha. No, I buy for me.:cat: If the consensus is this is probably not silver I’ll have to pass this time. I have enough costume jewelry as...
List it? What do you mean?
