[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9859301, member: 2844"]They have looked at much more insignificant stuff, believe me.;) From what I've seen so far, Medieval/Renaissance repros/fakes are generally recognizable as such. But things in the fakers world change all the time. Thai workshops have moved on to Georgian as well. I don't know about Medieval/Renaissance. And I don't know what the Bulgarian fakers are doing at the moment, they're a pretty active and creative bunch, and they have more of a feel for European jewellery because it is part of their esthetic. The Bulgarians fake mostly silver rings, which are worth less than your rings. Having said all that, I think yours are the real deal, I just want to have more certainty so you won't feel insecure about them. If you still feel insecure, I would be happy to take them off your hands so you won't have to worry anymore.:angelic::shifty::joyful:[/QUOTE]
