<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 10419457, member: 36"]The first one looks like gold-filled and old, but I'm not sure how old. The other two are Etruscan /Archaeological Revival and Eastlake for sure. The Victorians did a pile in gold-filled, and did it well enough to fool some acid tests. I'd look around the edges with a loupe for brass showing through. The hinged areas may well have brass pins, so they're no help at all. [USER=29]@Ownedbybear[/USER] might now more when she shows back up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
