    What about the rhinestone necklace? Are they just of no value/interest anymore because they are so numerous and use cheaper materials? Trying to learn about such things...

    Cluttered and Evelyb -- thank you so much for your help. What my cousin's daughters don't want, the rest will either be job-lotted on a local internet sale site or donated to a thrift. Thanks for the link to the Etsy compacts. Looks like it might be worth the effort to put it in my Etsy "store" (I have a few pieces languishing there, LOL!).

    Everyone has been such a help. THANK YOU!!! :kiss:

    That depends on the necklace. Plain "white" rhinestones with no signature don't sell well, if they sell at all. There were too many made. On the other hand, if there's a known maker it's a whole different ballgame. Pre-WWII Trifari goes for serious money, for instance. Muticolored D&E pieces, never actually signed, sell for real money too. Plain white 50s and later rhinestone? Not so much.

    Love the moonstone bracelet as well. I missed that on the first time through.
