Very curious. I think Faturan is a possibility. Maybe the previous Antiquers post has some testing options?
I guess it's possible...
The jump ring is actually just as oxidized as the filigree parts. I see only a tiny bit of wear around the bead holes and the material underneath...
What do you think? There are plenty of Chinese turquoise pieces old and new that look like these...
I found this in a case at a shop that had other vintage Chinese pieces. There are no marks but the silver filigree pieces with applied balls test...
The mark in the photo looks legit, these are not the early period of Trifari that some companies copied. I believe the Trifari pieces of the last...
Berebi himself was selling lots of old stock on eBay last year. I find his 1980's work often and the simple (non-ariticulated styles) don't 'sell...
Unless there are holes in the upper rail where the vertical turned spindles were I'd say this is original height. Thus, a chair for a short adult...
Not tiger's eye since it's translucent and has no banding. My acid test yielded the results I get when I test marked sterling. I did notice...
I've seen many of these sterling filigree brooches from China, many marked but this one is not. (This does test as sterling.) The center stone...
And it's heavy, too, over 32 grams! Thanks, AJ!
Thanks, AJ! I guess country of origin doesn't matter that much and there's no particular designer so I'll just sell it with a description of the...
I didn't mean it was peacock-eye glass, I mean the terminals on the tassels are enameled in a design like peacock feather "eyes": the...
This 925 (marked) hinged bangle features red and blue enamel on the front in the cone ends and the tips of the foxtail tassels which have peacock...
Have you tried an image search for the ring itself or the mark?
Oh, thank you! I'm not familiar with Chalet so I will look. Sommerso sounds good, so I'll use that in my search!
I found the same vase in different colors attributed to Luigi Onesto; pieces attributed to him do come on the pink/clear sommerso style. The...
Okay, probably not good terminology but I'm trying to figure out who made this heavy, hand-blown (mouth blown?) vase. It's almost 9" high (23 cm)...
OK, but the scraped back looks quite modern...I found 2 with the same body shape and different style or color tops and one that is identical....
Based on the back and the pin clasp style I'm much more inclined to thin the last 20 years, with a design suggesting cloisonne' enamel.
