[QUOTE="Dessert58, post: 10448195, member: 78465"][ATTACH=full]525548[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]525547[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]525546[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]525545[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]525544[/ATTACH] Today I found these two pendants on a flea market. They were not dirt cheap but you all know my craze for 'Oud Vlaams' so I had to have them. You can tell they started life as a pair of earrings, no? Finding a pair of these doesnt happen often. They are silver, gold backs and 2 rose cut diamonds each. A bit simple with not that many diamonds, but almost fully original. There is really nothing wrong with them except for the gold hook on the top. So, I think I might go for the easy option and just remove the gold hooks and replace them with some fish hooks. The pair earrings next to them in the fourth picture is my only other set of complete earrings. In the last picture you can see most of my Old Flemish -bits and pieces- earring hoard. I m still looking for the mates of some single earrings-turned-pendants but because of their numerous differences...that might be a lost cause. So...which earrings do you like best, and would you also go for the simple option to just add fish hooks?[/QUOTE]
