<p>[QUOTE="flipper, post: 1932264, member: 14025"]So then, if the patent #s basically are for parts of the pieces, can you really date the pieces by that? Or is it just safe to say because of the time period the patents were used, it authenticates the age of the piece? If they are made from pot metal and cut glass...do they still have value because they are "patent jewelry"? I guess I am still curious.</p><p>Thank you for finding some of the "mechanisms", anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
