<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 23575, member: 36"]That painter's palette is a mother or grandma piece for sure. [USER=210]@Marko[/USER] - I have a necklace that isn't quite identical but close. The original clasp was long gone. Today's best find went straight to the scrapper - no fear it was a modern and mass-produced gold cross. The guy I sold it to won't melt it; it'll be in his gold case for three times what he paid me.(LOL) A jewelry dealer at a rummage sale walked right by it. <img src="http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff436/Evelyb302/101_0062.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>The necklace</p><p><img src="http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff436/Evelyb302/101_0051-9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>I was hoping the bracelet and yellow pin were bakelite. No such luck. The link bracelet at the bottom is hand painted Persian though.
