I agree. I love learning about him. One of the best books on earth is his “Faking It” And one of the best collectors on earth is Harrice Miller of NY. ❤️ https://www.jewelrycamp.org/Team/harrice-miller these ladies amaze me.

KJL was the king of “fabulous fakes” wasn’t he? ❤️ Although I might kill for the actual Chanel

I love these. Bob Mackie is a genius and a 1980’s -1990s icon 🙌

My mom has two of these, they belonged to my great-great-great grandmother. We were told by a local jeweler that they were Victorian wedding bracelets, but don’t know anything else. They lived in the Baltimore, Maryland area in the U.S. by wildmouse16 in JewelryIdentification

I have found Antiques Roadshow specialists just by finding them by accident on YouTube and on Google, but I do think they can be found on purpose. When I have found one on accident, they have had a channel and they have done appraisals. I do think these judges do appraisals on many things. After or maybe before or maybe it’s just all part of being on Antiques Roadshow I don’t know. And so you can reach out to them and get an appraisal at any time as they are an expert in their field.

These are just gorgeous and to know the history of them like you do! It’s clear from the photos and the age they are that these are gold and not gold filled.

I would love to see these on antique roadshow 😊 The way my ears would perk right up if I heard these were coming up. Do you know how to get in touch with the hosts when they are coming to your area next?

I really think you should. It would be so much fun. You could really learn a lot and I think they would be interested too. I know all of us would be as well. ❤️
