<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kittykat111, post: 204596, member: 3841&quot;]Hi, I found a pearl brooch inside a drawer of a second-hand cabinet, which we had purchased for normal use. The brooch was contained inside a really worn, brown box, with <b>M. DROZ / Joaillier / 16 Rue Halevy / Paris (Opera)</b> engraved in the gold fabric lining. The brooch itself consists of two large pearls, surrounded by a flowery pattern, and there&#039;s some sparkly stone material inside the flowery pattern.</p><p><br /></p><p>I did an internet search of the name and address, and I found a poster for the jeweler:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/PUBLICITE-1930-PERLES-FINES-DE-CULTURE-JOAILLIER-SPECIALISTE-M-DROZ-/321536356279" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/PUBLICITE-1930-PERLES-FINES-DE-CULTURE-JOAILLIER-SPECIALISTE-M-DROZ-/321536356279" rel="nofollow">http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/PUBLICITE-1930-PERLES-FINES-DE-CULTURE-JOAILLIER-SPECIALISTE-M-DROZ-/321536356279</a></p><p><br /></p><p>So I&#039;m going to guess that the pearls are real, and it was purchased for at least 1000 francs, which is equivalent to ~$500 USD in today&#039;s value.</p><p><br /></p><p>How much is this worth? Should I sell it and use the money to buy myself a new phone?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
