<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 2557995, member: 36"]North Attleboro 1920s filigree, looks like. At least, all of the signed pieces I've ever found came from there. These pierced work pieces came in gold, platinum (I've heard) and costume. I've been known to hoard the costume bits! If the stones are foil-backed, i.e. have paint, it's costume. If not, it's a guessing game or time for a trip to the pawn shop. The style was popular before Deco came in and probably persisted into the 1930s. The rings came in decent sizes too; I have one (dime store costume of course) that my grandmother had but never wore that's a size 8 or so. Probably why she never wore it - too big.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
