[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 409628, member: 51"]First off, your photos are excellent. And welcome to the site! I am not seeing anything that stands out of great value, the ivory carved bracelet (never mind the difficulty of selling, if ivory) seems kind of simply carved, so I don't think a high end piece. If anything the other one seems nicer, but that one does appear to be ivory. Clip earrings (unless dripping with colored rhinestones and/from a collected maker) do not have much of a following these days. And for your question whether that circle mark on the back of a pair was a maker's mark, it is not. The Trifari, Givenchy, Monet might find a buyer, but I would think if they sold, value would be minimal. Grab bags are tough if you think someone with knowledge with jewelry has prepared them. We've had people on this site find some amazing things in grab bags -- but at a thrift where the packers knew nothing about jewelry. :)[/QUOTE]
