That alone makes me think it's legit; the fakes are almost always fake metal too.
What's the setting made from? One reason I think it's real is no one collects the newer bits enough to make it worth while faking.
I've scrapped a few watches here and there, but they were post-WWII and ladies into the bargain. No style and no loss. People who scrap 18th...
Looks legit from here, but I'm no porcelain expert.
Pure costume for certain. The detail on the back is pretty much diagnostic.
I think they mean there's gold in the glass.
Some were cheeky and some were... well... really cheeky. As in both cheeks and more besides!
Petrified wood. I agree with having it polished; it would be gorgeous.
Chinese.
Ack. The seller had better be chipping in! If you bought this on Feebay this would be one of the rare times when a partial refund is warranted.
This one looks like a chicken and a possum with a cat's face. That chicken is telling the other critter off.
Not all. This one looks like glass.
Some folks call them weeds; I call them free landscaping. :kiss::kiss:
LOL I wore a copper bracelet today as a matter of fact.
Daddy turtle would be a hit with the goth crowd! Mama is really cute. And all those flowers... yowza. We used to have a real flower garden, but...

Even better, look at what he's filled it with! Lots and lots of shiny bits!
No idea about Ozzie, but this one looks like aluminum. Maybe polished pewter, it turns up, but solid aluminum is what I'm seeing from here.
The black and silver necklace looks Turkish. The bracelet is more Afghan/Pakistani. I think....
Or staring spiral. The set isn't horribly old, but it might be 20 years old or so.
