<p>[QUOTE="JennieRose, post: 352308, member: 7354"]Thank you all for your input, I appreciate it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I've long admired saphiret, but could not afford it. These stones do look brown from certain angles (photo attached). The blue flashes or "fire" do remind me of dragon's breath. I collect vintage glass stones and make jewelry from them, and the Czech Republic creates the most beautiful stones second only to Swarovski of Austria. The set was advertised as vintage, so I will be disappointed if they are not. And I really hope they are not Chinese knockoffs. Before I knew better, I bought Chinese jewelry and the stones fell out of their settings, the plated metal flaked off, etc. If you knowledgable folks think that these are Chinese knockoffs, I will be returning them because they would not be worth the price I paid for them.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]119649[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
