Lucky find, stumbled on this necklace (sold as costume!) but now wondering if the chain has been stretched from the weight of the beads, or if it...
So sorry it happened. It's very hard to get mothball smell out. Some say it never totally goes away. And the stuff is toxic to humans and...
Cheryl, you should open a museum! Gorgeous!
Wow, great find Cx! It's a beauty. :)
I've seen vintage Czech necklaces on metal chains. I've seen vintage Czech necklaces on cotton cords. The cotton cord goes right up to the...
Agree lots of older necklaces have the metal elements aged differently, you see that all the time. What made me hesitate is that there is a...
I see what you mean about the cord attached to the chain. Almost wondering if this piece was longer at one time, some beads lost or broken, and...
Oh boy, this arrived! Thank you INH! :singing::):kiss::joyful::cat: Much appreciated. Sony electronics have great fidelity, I've already tried...
Or maybe just meant to imitate jade?? I see a lot of jade pieces with holes like this. Here's a jade one in 14K [ATTACH]...
I agree with Sunday, guessing this is an Asian knock-off. Nice enough, but there isn't the over-the-top quality that you'd expect from companies...

Wait for others, but the brooch is breathtaking. I assume French. Any marks on the ring?
I'm seeing a couple for sale on Ebay right now. Varying conditions......
I would have chosen that piece as favorite even if it didn't glow! I never look for uranium glass for some reason. When you saw that necklace...
Chips or no chips, my favorite is that uranium glass necklace! Fun score on these. Last minute day-saving cardboard box you found. :)
Definitely looks like it has some age from those stamps on the base. Is that a price tag?
Bingo! That's it. Searching "Ivar Holth" I found the exact same pin. Here's the back from the Ebay auction with your helpful ID, INH: [ATTACH]...
Might do a CTbids auction bid (my first)... we'll see. Local jewelry sale, and just wanted to check one thing. One of the items I was looking at...
Gorgeous! There isn't too much discussion about the "type" of Bakelite when looking at a piece like this. There are a few types, mostly to help...
I would have thought this was older as well. Also based on the hardware. First thought was early 1900's, but honestly a guess. No idea what is...
