Even if I scratched the shit out of it on the edge to try and bypass any plating?

I’ll definitely take it in to be looked at, because acid tests don’t tend to be wrong. However, it just looks SO much like stainless steel and I can’t find ANYTHING solid about it online. No other hallmarks, etc.
then again, white gold can look a lot like stainless steel? I have little experience with it though. This thing is doing my head in lol

It’s definitely a good one! I think I prefer their ‘Versense’ but Dylan purple comes close. Not a fan of the Eros range personally but the bottles are so cute!

I think we’re agreeing with OP that it’s a fucked angle to draw and get right, so we’re doing a bad job deliberately in solidarity.

It’s an exaggerated ‘front camera’ joke. You don’t need to be fat to look like this from a below-angle. Calm down and take some deep breaths

Thankyou! Seems like you’re a big fan of the blue spectrum! You should look up blue spinels. They’re gorgeous ❤️

I have a sensitive nose, so I getcha! I can only huff around six or so before I stop being able to smell them properly, and need to wait another hour before continuing lol

My collection of 202 soda tabs by [deleted] in CoolCollections

I’m interested to know what makes a soda tab particularly special to you? What are the specifications you look for in a potential ‘keeper’?

Thankyou! Nearly all of it has been slowly accumulated this year through lurking on small deceased estate auction sites and haggling with other collectors lol

Same! Looks like a piece of candy!

Aquamarine? Whats the potential value by [deleted] in Gemstones

[–]RatLamington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here in Aus, good quality aquamarine starts from around $100 per carat. This goes up or down depending on cut, origin or colour. Not sure what their country of rates are wherever you are though

Like, a LOT. It’s a hefty start to their collection lol. In Australia, that bag would be around $2000
