[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 308110, member: 106"]Today's jewelry haul :) These three pin/pendants are made by a local jewelry designer whose name is Courtney. Because her pieces don't look like 'serious' jewelry, they often fly under the thrift stores radar. The leaf and bird&flower were recognized as sterling, but even at $15 ea., they were still well below her retail price. The elephant was the true sleeper - on the $4 rack and it retails for much more than the other two :) I've put it on an ivory bead necklace that I found last week at the SA for 50¢ [ATTACH=full]101489[/ATTACH] These two pins were also from the $4 rack ... the one is white metal and various Chalcedony stones (I'm unfamiliar with this style of inlay ... but I like it)- probably not brand new, but I doubt it's too old. The other is my first pietra dura piece that I've ever come across. It's in an unmarked yellow metal setting and I do think this one is pretty old, but I'm not certain about it.
