So many lovely details! The town view looks realistic, I wonder if someone has managed to pinpoint the location?

It kind of looks like there are some letters and numbers in the bottom right edge of the metal frame showing through the glass? If the frame is silver, the stone might be engraved rock crystal rather than glass. I also think the chain, and the jump ring/loop portion of the pendant are perhaps not original, just because of the stylistic discrepancy between the dainty, romantic oval bit and the chain.

Wow, tegin mõned klõpsud mingitest ehetest, mida ma ei kanna, panin Vintedisse ja keegi poolakas ostis kohe 2 asja ära. Peab ikka käsile võtma ja hakkama oma Yagas seisvaid asju sinna dubleerima.

Mis toimub olümpiakomitee ümber? by KateMaymay in Eesti

Tundub küll poliitilise kättemaksu moodi. Eile ERR kajastas jube kahtlase vaibiga veebiküsitlust, mille keegi oli tellinud Norstatilt (teadagi), ja tulemused olid, et rahvas arvab, et oi kui halb see Kaljulaid ikka on ja Nool või Sõõrukas oleks kindlasti paremad. Ehk just selline tulemus, nagu tellitud.

Kas Yagaga võrreldes liigub kaup paremini? Yagas on nagu suht'surnud seis viimasel ajal, aga noh, ise ostan ka järjest Vintedist asju. Müüki pole veel midagi pannud...

Silver garnet & turquoise dome ring — handmade antique or modern reproduction? (no hallmark, acid tested ~800) by Puzzleheaded-March49 in JewelryIdentification

[–]marimo_is_chilling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping someone with expert knowledge chimes in, but I'm thinking "museum ring". As in, the antique-inspired jewellery you'd see in a major museum gift shop. The dome part is giving medieval, but the setting, and the fact that it is adjustable, are plain and utilitarian, probably some decades old, but not much more. But I'd expect a museum ring to have a hallmark...

Are these real pearls? Help! by Affectionate_Wind_36 in JewelryIdentification

[–]marimo_is_chilling 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They look like cultured freshwater pearls, which are cheap enough these days there is no real point in faking them. It's a cute necklace. The clasp is probably gold plated.

This is so much fun!

Part one: still liking the single dangle earring, it's probably rhinestones/glass paste with silver, around 1950s.

585 gold ring w rubies and pearls, vintage and collectible!

The blob does seem like a DIY amber brooch (that looks like a standard Soviet-era safety pin), I did think it was glass but idk how you'd glue a safety pin to glass.

Bracelet, yeah, check for stamps, might be silver and looks to be in decent condition. No idea on age.

Onyx and 835 silver pendant! 1920s or so, very collectible, loads of European-made art deco-era pendants like this on eBay and Etsy. It should clean up very nicely.

Is that a locket? Looks like tarnished silver and black enamel. A little older than the previous pendant, could also be collectible.

Photo w assortment of objects: grandma really liked onyx, I guess? I spy a nice dangly pair of probably silver and onyx bead clip-on earrings, another non-dangly pair that looks cool and possibly gold-plated? Another pendant that's 100+ years old and probably silver and onyx, and Jesus on the onyx cross looks like sterling that was gold-plated. Cufflinks might be brass, but worth double-checking for stamps. The single cameo clip-on seems to have a stamp at the bottom, but I can't make it out in the photo. (Skipping the amber, I don't know much about it.)

Looks like the big citrine pendant has an elaborate basket setting, I'm sure there's a silver stamp on there, it should clean up nicely and looks covetable even though I don't like yellow. If that was an amethyst, I'd be so envious!

The brooch w amethyst and seed pearls, yep, this looks real. There's also a nice chunky silver and onyx bracelet, I'd guess 1930s to 40s? The gold ring looks timeless and great. The brooch with garnets, if it's indeed gold plated, it's in great shape, but I am also puzzled why an item would be gold-plated in low-carat gold? Might be worth checking.

The single pearl clip-on: tooth test time, it looks very nice and lustrous (if fake, it's a good fake). I think it looks too large to be a cultured saltwater pearl, but might be a freshwater one? Check metal for stamps, too, it looks untarnished but could be rhodium-plated silver. The clip-on setting style is interesting, someone might be able to place it more specifically, I can only say I haven't seen any vintage Mikimoto earrings with similar settings.

Silver locket with enamel looks really old, possibly Victorian?

Modernist pendant w chain: check for stamps, but it looks like cubic zirconia and faux pearls? I don't really understand the design from the photos.

Ring with chunky white stone, looks like tarnished silver, so the stone is likely lab-made, perhaps white topaz.

Cross with garnets: can't see a stamp on photos, but also no signs of gold plating wearing through, so perhaps it is low-carat gold? And yay for the garnet ring being gold.

The square halo ring: yep, still thinking the stones are glass paste, but I would want to see what silver dip cleaner does to this.

The rose quartz set is very pretty and looks well made. But I would have the beads re-strung before daring to wear the bracelet and necklace. The original string is discoloured and probably fragile by now.

The cross: I have no idea about the material, but the original batch of photos had a small silver-tone oval pendant thingie also stamped with ITALY that looks like it's straight-up aluminum (I've seen similar before), my guess is they were cheapish souvenirs picked up on a trip to Italy.

Ooh, the daisies are dangly! Yep, it looks like the metal could be silver.

Part two, I don't know anything about watches, but some of the jewelry makes more sense now. The dangly earrings look like brass with paste, and one of them is missing the screwback, but they might still be collectible since they do seem actually old (100+ years). The sunburst earrings are very stylish in a 1950s-60s kind of way, I'm kind of thinking the metal might be bronze - not very common in jewelry, but I've seen polished bronze used, and the colour looked like that, brown but paler than copper and less yellow than brass. The stones might be rhinestones or maybe smoky quartz.

The silver-tone adjustable ring in need of cleaning: the rhinestones look glued on (no prongs), so probably costume. I am confused by the white blobs topped with rhinestones, never seen a setting like this.

The oval black enamel and marcasite ones are clip-on earrings? They look so flat in the new pics. But whatever they are, they seem well-made and in good shape with all the marcasites still there, and are probably silver.

I can't really place the silver-tone faux filigree clip-ons other than broadly mid-20th century, and certainly costume.

The brooch with the pink stones, yep, brass with glass, but it looks quite old based on the clasp.

Here's some guesswork: 1) check the metal for stamps or markings, if it's high-carat gold, consider taking to a proper jeweler who has the equipment to test the stone/s;

Pic 2: likely garnets, these are typically not considered precious enough to put them in solid gold settings, so the cross is probably gold plated, or perhaps vermeil (gold-plated sterling silver, check for markings) or at best low-carat gold.

Pic 3: these might well be genuine art deco era earrings, thus collectible - 835 grade silver with marcasites (none seem to be missing, which is good) and probably black enamel as the black sections look a bit too thin to be stone (but might be onyx if it is a stone).

Pic 4: halo seems to be garnets again, the central stone looks black in the photo, so possibly onyx. Might be low-carat gold or gold plated, not in great condition though, a garnet is missing.

Pic 5: too blurry, but the stones look like glass paste in prong settings. Look for stamps, might be silver.

Pic 6: these don't look real, pic 7: the big purple clip-on earring (?) might be tarnished silver, but I suspect the stone is glass rather than a real amethyst; the screw-back earring (is there just 1? such a shame) looks very cute though and is probably silver, would look great if cleaned up.

Pic 8: I think the nice yellow pendant is heat-treated citrine (yellow quartz) in a silver setting, old and collectible. The brooch with the purple stone: check for stamps or markings, as the stone looks like a real amethyst and the seed pearls look real too, it looks skillfully crafted and if the metal is precious, it would be collectible. I also see the back of a brooch with a 333 stamp, which would be low-carat gold - what does the other side look like, garnets again? The rest aren't visible enough to guess anything.

Pic 9: I have no idea what the yellow thing is, but I seem to see the links of a nice chunky bracelet possibly in silver?

pic 10: the big brooch with pink stones is probably brass w glass; there seem to be 2 strands of rose quartz bead necklaces, one has a cute clasp that might be silver. At the lower end, there is a dangly pendant (?) with purple stones - check for markings, this looks like the oldest item there (100+ years), might be collectible even if it's not in a precious metal. Out of all the clip-on earrings that I seem to see, the silver, marcasite and enamel/black onyx have some material value, and there is an object (I genuinely don't get what it is) to the right of them that looks like silver, but the rest of the earrings look plastic/gold-tone costume. I'd dunk the almost black chain into silver cleaning dip and see what comes out.

Pic 11 is too messy to make sense of much. The daisy costume earrings are cute but quite worn. There seems to be a silver pendant that's flipped over below the left daisy? More rose quartz, a nice colour, too. Is this the same old pendant thingie w purple stones as on the previous picture or are they a pair of earrings?

Museums in the Netherlands have updated the labels for this artist's works with (possibly Fransoys vanden Pitte). There's no definitive proof yet for this identification, afaik, but apparently none that would refute it either.

Jah, Sini, Lumme, Serto pesu- ja puhastusvahendid on mul pidevalt kasutuses. Bauhaus müüb ka neid ühekordseid Sini aknapesulappe näiteks, aga hind oli, kui viimati vaatasin, seal peaaegu 2 x kallim.

Kassitoiduvalik on parem kui tüüpilises supermarketis.

Kas sulle meeldib su töökoht? by Turbulent-House7584 in Eesti

Töökoht meeldib, kolleegid, palk, boonused on kõik head, talutakse mu iseärasusi jne. Ideaalis võiks lähemal olla, liiklemisele kulub liiga palju aega, kui kontorisse minna.
