Featured Amber or...? (and other finds)

Sorry for the multiple threads. Here are a few other pieces I came across lately. I bought the stretch bracelet for 3 euros, so I figure there's a good chance it isn't amber. The jade (?) brooch is marked 925 on the clasp. It doesn't have any of those filaments I've heard are in jade; the stone is nearly translucent. The anchor medal is enameled with a pronged back; not really sure what sort of pin it's supposed to be.

 

Any chance we could see the back of #2? I'm terrible with jade, but sometimes just seeing the quality of the pin back can help in assessing the quality of something.

No idea about #1, some kind of post pin as you said, likely military.

As you suggested, the stretch bracelet is probably not amber. From my experience these stretch pieces with the 4 holes per bead style are newer, Chinese using mass produced materials. I do like the look of the beads though -- sort of reminiscent of older plastics. Very wearable in any case.

 

The stone is attached with wires and possibly glue m i have a feeling the pin back may not be original to the piece.

 

The pin appears to be jade. Maybe something taken from a jewel or trinket box and turned into a pin.
What are the figures - Child? Lion? I can't really make it out.

The bracelet is new from China, could be reconstituted amber, but often are plastic.

 

Kind of looks, to me like a lion and a fox, but it was hard to make the features stand out more.......LOVE IT!!!!!!
