[QUOTE="Dessert58, post: 9434561, member: 78465"][ATTACH=full]436678[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436679[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436680[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436681[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436684[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436683[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]436682[/ATTACH] We went to a flea market with the kids today to meet some family who was there, and look what I brought home! We didn't arrive very early because three kids, but when we were there, these earrings were the first thing I saw. (The box came with some brooches I also took home). They were very dirty but even then the stones stood out to me. The metal didn't look like silver but I took my chance for 8€. When we got home I tested them and the stones are rose cut diamonds. The metal tests as 14 carat gold but I believe it is platinum because they have the diamond-shaped mark and the metal doesn't feel/behave like gold/silver I know. This would be my very first platinum catch 'in the wild'. I love these earrings anyways and I almost couldn't wait to clean them to put them on! So, what do you think about my earrings?[/QUOTE]
