[QUOTE="Dessert58, post: 10210551, member: 78465"][ATTACH=full]510306[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510305[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510304[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510303[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510302[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510301[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510300[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]510299[/ATTACH] So, I bought a lot with some Flemish jewelry a few weeks ago, and these three crosses were in it. (Ca 1860-1880 s, diamond on foil, silver, gold back). In my country (country of origin of these crosses) you dont find these crosses often, but if you do they are usually not very expensive. So I just buy them whenever I find them for cheap. One cross is all original with nice quality foiled back rose cut diamonds. The second cross also has nice big stones, but it misses its complete center part. The third cross misses its top part, its center stone and some surrounding stones. I do happen to have a part laying around that could make a good center part for the second cross. I m still not sure if I would pair them because the part I had laying around only has a tiny size senaille/diamond...what would you do? For comparison I show you in the last two pictures my other Flemish crosses and a 'Vlaams Hart' to show you how some of these crosses also have a top part and others have a gold ring just like the Heart. So...what do you think? Let the second cross be repaired or wait till I find the 'perfect' middle part?[/QUOTE]
