<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Anna Johndrow, post: 1937255, member: 7900&quot;]Hi! Like so many, I&#039;m using this down time to go over my stores of stuff...and after seeing interesting posts about silver jewelry from Mexico I thought I&#039;d share some of the stuff I have and get some input.</p><p><br /></p><p>My dad used to take business trips to Mexico in the early 50&#039;s and always bring my mother back a trinket. I&#039;ve polished them up and would like to know if any of this jewelry is above average or is all of it tourist level baubles? Don&#039;t worry, both mom and dad are gone now so no one will be offended!&nbsp; One of the earrings got smashed in a travel case and I recently took it to Mexico where a street vendor repaired it as best he could.</p><p><br /></p><p>The belt buckle probably belonged to my great grandparents who were missionaries in Burma between the late 1800&#039;s to the start of WWII.&nbsp; I also have a lot of VERY OLD ivory and some from the 80&#039;s when my parents lived in Nigeria. Not sure what I am allowed to do with Ivory. It&#039;s obvious it is very old because it has dried and cracked (not the jewelry, but the handles on the cutlery) but there are so many restrictions on ivory now I don&#039;t know what to do with it![ATTACH=full]245865[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245866[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245867[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245868[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245869[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245870[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245871[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245872[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245873[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]245874[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for any help you can offer!</p><p><br /></p><p>Anna[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
