[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 278623, member: 51"][I]Instead of starting another thread and not to hijack my own post but came across this hidden in the back of the drawer the rest of this stuff came from. [/I] It is usually best to start a new thread and will need much better photos for this bracelet. Too many items for one post in my opinion. I'm happy to help with jewelry, but to ID these I'd almost need to make a spreadsheet to keep things straight. :) In the future, include ANYTHING written on the pieces in photos -- ideally not only the photo, but write the text out as well so the folks helping have as much info as possible. I'm agreeing with Cluttered on the post ID's so far. In general 1/20th of 12K means just a so-so piece. Is the knotted bracelet a set with the necklace, are they both marked this way? The necklace did look interesting to me as well, but if marked 1/20th of 12K, probably not all that great a value. Some of the bangles, hat pins may be gold. If nothing is written on them, we will not be able to tell this for sure in just a photo. Do you have a jeweler or pawn shop you could bring the gold colored items in the lot in to have checked?[/QUOTE]
