<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 345398, member: 5833"]I don't give monetary appraisals, but do sometimes advise people on the strong & weak points of a cameo they want to sell to help them set a price & for 2 years or more have had to tell some of them that a silver setting, even if sterling rather than Italian 800 silver, adds very little market value, that you can barely give silver away. Cameos, even ones of barely mediocre quality, are fetching good money if set in enough gold, while some very good ones can't get much more than $100 because they are in silver. Throwing it in the trash is a bit extreme. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
