| VICTORIAN SWIVEL PORTRAIT BROOCH | ||||
  |
 |
|||
Wonderful old Victorian photo brooch with a swivel gilt
frame, tubular hinge, c-clasp and extended pinstem. On one side,
a handsome man in a suit, on the other side, a beautiful young woman with
flowing locks of hair. The photos are under plastic. The woman's
photo shows some wear but overall condition is very good.
|
||||
| VICTORIAN AMETHYST FESTOON ~ Bonus Earrings | ||||
 |
  |
 |
||
Gorgeous 16" antique festoon necklace, featuring aged
brass filigree segments embellished with bezel set amethyst stones (possibly
real amethyst, could be glass). The pendant itself is about
1-1/2" wide, and drops just over 2-1/2" at the center. The
dainty goldwashed 7/8" Bond Boyd Sterling screwback earrings are not an
exact match, but they make a pretty good marriage, so I am including them
as a bonus. Everything is in very good vintage condition.
|
||||
| MOTHER-OF-PEARL BRACELET | |||
 |
Vintage mother-of-pearl bracelet, 7-1/2" long by 5/8" wide -- probably
French and probably hand-made. Very good condition.
|
||
| AGED BRASS DRESS CLIP | |||
 |
 |
||
Pretty aged brass 1920s dress clip embellished with
rhinestones and faux pearls. 2" x 1-1/4" and in very good condition.
|
|||
| ENGRAVED 9 CT GOLD LOCKET | |||
 |
 |
||
Very pretty Edwardian? locket, 11/16" x 13/16" in size
and in very good condition. The top of the front panel is marked:
"9 CT BACK & FRONT". It is also engraved in elaborate script
with what I believe are the initials RG. The back of the locket is
plain, and there is one photo bezel on the inside back panel. The
other side is lined with some very old paper. The photo appears to
be newer than the locket itself.
|
|||
| UNIQUE VICTORIAN PIN with STONES | |||
 |
 |
||
Fabulous old Victorian gilt brooch with an unusual assortment
of components that may have some special significance I'm not aware of.
Stones are red and pink, and the filigree work on the outer edges is very
delicate. Typical of the era, the brooch is equipped with a wide-clasp
and extended pin stem. A few minor age spots, but overall condition
is excellent.
|
|||
| FRENCH JET VICTORIAN CROSS | |||
  |
  |
||
Large Victorian(?) cross suspended from a newly crafted
18" elasticized necklace of black wooden beads and rhinestone rondelles.
The 2" x 1-1/4" cross features multi-faceted glass stones mounted on a
painted black silver metal base. Much of the paint on the back
and top loop has worn off, but the front of the cross and the necklace
itself are in excellent condition.
|
|||
| VINTAGE DRESS CLIP | |||
 |
 |
||
Yummy 2-1/4" x 2" dress clip with red glass 'flowers'
(cabochons) poking out between bronze colored metal leaves. Some
wear to the clip itself but overall condition is very good.
|
|||
| ART NOUVEAU DRESS CLIP | |||
 |
Very hefty and unusual 2-1/2" x 2" triangular dress clip featuring a floral motif in an openwork design comprised largely of big silver colored metal balls! I have no idea what the metal is -- but it's heavy! The clip mechanism is nice and tight. Some signs of age and it could probably use a gentle cleaning, but overall condition is very good.
