Message:: [QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 12270239, member: 51"]Some of you know I'm obsessed with moss agate, so almost fell over when I found these at a garage sale this weekend.   At first I thought "antique".  I could tell it was sterling, later found the marks. Now thinking this is maybe vintage at best, but will wait to hear thoughts.  Both pieces are marked 925 with a maker's mark that looks like an "H" with a line slashed through.  I believe that the bowl is marked "Indonesia" as well. When I go on Ebay and search "Indonesia Moss Agate bowl" I get 99 matches.  When I search "Moss Agate bowl 925" I get zero matches under live OR completed auctions.  I cannot find anything similar to these pieces on Ebay or online. Tons of sterling and moss agate jewelry, there are modern spoons that are 100% moss agate, or sterling spoons with moss agate handles (usually antique) also many moss agate bowls, but no moss agate bowls with sterling bases like this. Would it have been a custom piece?  [USER=2844]@Any Jewelry[/USER] would you have ideas?  Or anyone else?  THANKS!
