<p>[QUOTE="bluejay, post: 9717818, member: 80352"]I recently purchased a big bundle of jewellery, nearly 60 items for £20... can't lose right?! So far have found four silver necklaces, and a pearl (probably glass) necklace with a 9ct clasp, along with lots of nice costume, so I'm very happy. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>There's a few pieces I wonder if I could get some advice on in terms of materials/age?

[QUOTE="bluejay, post: 9717818, member: 80352"]I recently purchased a big bundle of jewellery, nearly 60 items for £20... can't lose right?! So far have found four silver necklaces, and a pearl (probably glass) necklace with a 9ct clasp, along with lots of nice costume, so I'm very happy. :D There's a few pieces I wonder if I could get some advice on in terms of materials/age? Apologies if these are obvious, I'm very much new to this and haven't found the answers on Google! First up, this brooch - I've found others that are Art Deco or older, but is the clasp style newer than that? No marks.

They're cool to the touch, a few have tiny chips, they look slightly metallic but I'm not sure if that's some sort of coating.
