<p>[QUOTE="cxgirl, post: 2896030, member: 63"]Hi all,</p><p>this is up for sale on a local on-line 24 hour auction with a starting bid of $75.00CDN, they say 14K (tested by them), weight is 2.2grams. no marks, no other photos, woven hair in the front under the glass. I can't get in to see it before the auction ends.</p><p>I'll probably bid - do you think the style of ring has age? Victorian time period? I have bought from this person before, they have nice stuff sometimes, but have been caught fibbing on metal purity. I suck at figuring out what age from style with jewelry, so any information or thoughts is appreciated</p><p>thanks for looking<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>edit to add 2 photos they just sent me - I've circled an area that looks to have wear to maybe gold plate or maybe someone tested for gold purity? I might just bid and if I win I can have a better look and not buy it. Around here I'm pretty sure I will be the only bidder</p><p>[ATTACH=full]285511[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]285512[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]285518[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]285519[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]285525[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
