[QUOTE="KSW, post: 9420892, member: 8708"]The treasures are out there even if they are pretty ugly! This was in a basket of ladies tights in a charity shop. I didn’t even stop to look to see if there was a hallmark as the metal was screaming at me that it was gold. At £1.50 I dug deep and took my chance. And ran! The only mark I can find is a 750 in a lozenge, no makers mark or date letter. Is this normal? It’s quite big and at 11g seems a lot of 18k gold to put a piece of not beautiful glass into :confused: I’ve seen some of the big chunky rings with the fake 750 but this does test 18k on a stone although I’m not going to spoil it by filing it to be absolutely sure. I’m presuming the green is glass, sort of looks like the Italian canes cut a bit oddly. It’s definitely a bit different…. Anyone seen anything like it before? Thankyou :) [ATTACH=full]432377[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432378[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432379[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432380[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432381[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432382[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432383[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432384[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
