Agree, nice find!
Thank you again. Very helpful. :) It tested as silver on the testing stone, so have to think it is Sterling, unless 833 would show nearly the...
I very much appreciate the detailed info and photos AJ! Was hoping you'd stop by because I had a feeling you might know about these. Thank you so...
This is very much out of my wheelhouse, but I was in the first group into an estate sale and wound up buying this. The back tests as sterling, I...
It looks pre-20th century to my eye, how old, not sure. Could be replacement clasp. I've never seen similar, which makes me think old! Going...
That's a great sale!
The only test capability is a $12 diamond tester, and I did test, they are definitely not diamonds. It could be Middle Eastern or Indian. That...
I would have rescued that too! Curious what we find out about the glass. Wait for others with suggestions about loosening the glue. Hopefully...
What looks like dirt in the back of pendant is actually a combination of reflection and a bit of magnification of the surface the pendant was...
Can't decide whether it this rhinestone pendant looks handmade by a crafter or jewelry maker, or if it's something else. Thinking vintage at...

Absolutely STUNNING!! Breathtaking. I'm not sure how different jewelers test, if you have a jeweler you use and trust, probably okay. But I'm...
Thanks Bronwen and AJ. It was a no brainer at $2, but I don't know how to even list this or what to expect value wise. I was thinking of...
Wood figure on marble base. What era? (1910-20's Italian souvenir??) I'm sure this is "after" some famous scene, but have no idea what. This...
My vote is also Boucher. This looks too heavy and well made for Lisner. Also Boucher pieces sometimes have numbers on the back like this one.
Yes, something like that for sure. Almost certain that puff is original to the piece. What an interesting compact! My first thought was that...
You might look into "caricature carvers", too. The features are exaggerated and I think would fall into that category.
There is a ton of work in it. Even has floor planks. It's pretty impressive and must have taken a while to make this. I agree with the "Folk...
Looking around briefly, this company rents (!) these -- and they call them the "Eiffel Tower Vase", too....
