[QUOTE="Dessert58, post: 9791105, member: 78465"][ATTACH=full]485081[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]485082[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]485080[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]485079[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]485078[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]485076[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]485077[/ATTACH] Here are some of the things I found these last few weeks. The goldstone and micro mosaic cross arrived as a single earring in a single earring lot. I converted it into a pendant. (Oops, the bail is turned upside down in the picture). Its kind of big, so I wonder if it didn't start its life as a pendant anyhow? I love the small holy ghost pigeon! I have always liked animals in micro mosaic. This cross misses a few tiny chips goldstone at its feet. It doesn't bother me. The micro mosaic brooch was a 1€ flea market find today. The victorian silver and paste pantsy brooch was an online purchase. I think it might also have been used on a comb in the early days. The bracelet also was a flea market find. Its 800 silver and its a pleasure to wear. The earrings were also a today s flea market find: 2€. They are 18 carat gold and rose cut diamonds. Unfortunately, one of the earrings is broken. Ah well, 18 carat gold and diamonds...I would gladly pay 2€ for them any day. The 'creoles' are gold doublé. The two art deco pendants are silver and onyx, with rock crystal for the drop pendant. The dog lapel pin and other pendant are from the Fix brand, so gold doublé. The other lapel pin is silver with a big topaz or citrine stone. And last but not least: 2 old flemish earrings, turned into pendants! Silver with gold details and some senailles, set on foil, from around 1850-1880 ish. Those were both lucky finds: one in a flea market, the other online and both were bargains. I keep hoping to one day find their match, and convert them back into earrings, but that might be a very difficult task.[/QUOTE]
