<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 864497, member: 2844&quot;]That would have been more than exciting to me.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I love 18th century jewellery but rarely get the chance to buy it for a price my bank manager agrees with.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is a real stunner. I think it could have been part of a necklace.</p><p>I don&#039;t much like the chunky modern band, but I am very glad someone thought enough of this beauty to re-purpose it, and I understand the reasoning behind the threefold support of an 18th century piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pale green stones could be chrysoberyl, highly popular in the 18th century. The colour ranges from pale yellow to darkish green, and everything in between. </p><p>When gemstones were lost they were often replaced with glass stones.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think you&#039;ll find that only the diamonds are set in silver, which is done to enhance the white of the diamonds. The pale green stones look set in gold, which is what I would expect. Parts of the back seem to be rose gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>One of my favourite quotes: &quot;Frankly my dear, I don&#039;t give a damn&quot;.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie75" alt=":playful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
