<p>[QUOTE="George Chaney, post: 4260494, member: 19137"]KSW, The butterfly is the reason I placed that single bid. I still feel like cleaned up, it will make a nice lovely pendant that will fetch a nice price. The enamel looks to have spots left unenameled to allow the underlying gold to show through, but at the same time, it could be chipping....lol. </p><p><br /></p><p>The butterfly is a mix of gold and silver with rose cut style & flat cut diamonds. Yes, the gems have been tested using my diamond tester. My gem tester is showing this as a red spinel. I should have known better than to use the words of the auction house on what was mounted....it came in the same day we were headed out and I wanted to get it up and get some feedback.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
