<p>[QUOTE=&quot;afantiques, post: 83843, member: 25&quot;]Quite a lot of British late 19th C Jewellery is unmarked, but it is usually pretty easy to tell if items are gold. The experienced eye and hand can sort out the items worth testing from the dross very quickly. 625 is the decimal proportion of 15 carat, so that one is a very typical mark, not used after about 1920 when 15 carat was abandoned. The design is clearly late Victorian.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pendant (last item) and the tie pin are both items often found in unmarked gold.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
