<p>[QUOTE="Marie Forjan, post: 181476, member: 147"]- The necklace looks like it may be vintage Deco.</p><p>- The opaline glass cab pin looks like 1960s.</p><p>- Love the Czech pin with the square rhinestones, looks 1930s, early 40s.</p><p>- The mother of pearl star is relative recent, last 30 years or so. An older one would not have that clasp glued on the back, the clasp would be different and attached differently.</p><p>- The brass with the blue green stone looks like South West inexpensive tourist jewelry, the stone looks like glass to me.</p><p>- The pin with the large clear glass stone, it looks late 1940s, early 1950s. Someone used a straight pin to reattach the pin stem. Look just below the clasp, is that a mark? Is it a rollover clasp of a simple C shape?</p><p>- The one with the red glass stone, also late 1940s, early 1950s.</p><p>- The bracelet, looks nice, but is the other side of the clasp there? The jump ring should be attached to the other end of the bracelet (not to the spring ring clasp). In the picture showing the whole thing it looks like something is wrong on that other end. Also, is there a design on the sides of the metal settings? As mentioned above, these are often sterling, but I have also had several that were not.</p><p>- The leaf pin looks like 1960s.</p><p>- Love the expansion bracelet! Look on the metal sections on the inside, sometimes there is a mark. Looks 1950s-60s.</p><p>- The flower pin looks like it took a little abuse. You can try polishing it with a Sunshine cloth, that may brighten it a bit. Don't rub too hard, you don't want to take off the gold. Do not get it wet, it will ruin the rhinestone.</p><p><br /></p><p>Caveat - all my comments are based on the photos, often holding something in my hands makes a HUGE difference!
