[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 822570, member: 85"]Appears the earrings are marked sterling as Lucille said. The earrings appear to be a different flower than the bracelet. Is that correct? I think the bracelet is that silver plated pot metal that was popular at the time. In the 1950s sterling was not an expensive metal. One could buy it at Woolworth's for very little. So Great Grandma was more attached to you than the jewelry. Wonderful that you kept it all this time and remember her giving it to you.[/QUOTE]
