[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 1079403, member: 301"]Just so we're clear..... it's lovely...and looks older.. & that's a nice story about it being passed down..... but... if your grandma was given the necklace when she was old enuf to wear it...say 21 years old.... that's 1933.... if she got it from her mom ...passed down when she was 40...that's 1952.... There's nothing to say that your great gramdma didn't buy it new...as a gift, or didn't get it herself.....in the 1920's... Just saying...... family stories are nice and wonderful.....but no indication of an items age without knowing when it 1st showed up..[/QUOTE]
