<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 241614, member: 51&quot;]Evelyb is correct, we don&#039;t really give values.&nbsp; Sometimes someone will throw out a ballpark number for something like furniture, but in general the site is for identification, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>A couple of thoughts, although verdigris usually means brass, etc. I have had the green stuff wipe off of other jewelry and transfer onto silver, so you might just try wiping it off and see what you find.&nbsp; These sure look like they could be silver to me, and if the presentation case is original, this was a fairly high end jeweler so one might expect silver or better, but you never know.</p><p><br /></p><p>One way to get an idea of values as suggested, would be to look at Ebay completed. Although there don&#039;t seem to be any &quot;Shah &amp; Shah earrings&quot; at present, you could search for similar.&nbsp; Under &quot;jade <u>screw back</u> earrings&quot; here is a list from highest on down.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;_ipg=200&amp;_nkw=jade+screw+back+earrings&amp;_sop=16" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;_ipg=200&amp;_nkw=jade+screw+back+earrings&amp;_sop=16" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;_ipg=200&amp;_nkw=jade+screw+back+earrings&amp;_sop=16</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I was surprised at the sterling set that sold for $700, maybe people look for certain kinds of jade, or maybe because they were Chinese export.&nbsp; Note that the title for that auction was pretty generic, but still found the bidders.&nbsp; Also, the seller ships &quot;Worldwide&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would photograph these WITH the case, and if you can part with the case, be sure to say &quot;case included&quot; or &quot;w/case&quot; in the title as well as &quot;Shah &amp; Shah&quot;, and if you are able, include worldwide shipping.&nbsp; I think the case adds to the desirability of the set and it may be that a lot of bidders would come from outside the U.S.</p><p><br /></p><p>They have a great look.&nbsp; In general screw back earrings are a tough sell, but these might be the exception.&nbsp; Very nice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
