[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1324359, member: 2844"]Nice set, Charlie. Probably 1960s-70s. Indian silver can be anything from below .500 to 1000, so 100% silver. Sterling is .925. My guess is these are between .600 and .800. But the fineness doesn't really matter in this case, the people who buy them like the ethnic look.
