[QUOTE="Lucashudd11, post: 4502027, member: 18272"]I saw this pendant on ebay with some really blurry photos and hardly much of a description, and took a risk. Got it for a little over the price of the gold. [U][B]Details[/B][/U] [LIST] [*]18K YG [*]~1.6g [*]0.5" diameter [*]Color changing [LIST] [*]Violet Inside [*]Red under UV light [*]Robin-Egg blue in sunshine [/LIST] [/LIST] [U][B]My amateurish analysis[/B][/U] [LIST] [*]The two solder points under the pendant suggest to me that this actually came from a ring or a beret? [*]Most likely a color-changing synthetic sapphire due to the red glow in UV light. [*]Age unk - interesting plate cannetile work though. [*]EDIT: in starting to look at my own photos I'm questioning whether it is even gold. yikes! see - outside photo [/LIST] Thoughts on what I have?[ATTACH=full]394117[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394118[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394119[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394120[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]394121[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
