Message:: [QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 292809, member: 5833"]One evening last year my boyfriend, after rummaging around in his closet, tossed in my lap a battered plastic supermarket bag containing an even more battered paper supermarket sack, inside which was a jumble of jewellery that had belonged to his late mother. His parents liked to travel, and most of the bag's contents was inexpensive souvenir stuff, necklaces made of dyed seeds or bits of mother of pearl, that sort of thing.  Apart from a 14k watch with a diamond encircled face, whose weight had pulled it down to the very bottom of the heap, there was little worth salvaging. It was not until browsing posts from earlier this year that I remembered I had set aside this pendant and coordinating earrings.  Completely unmarked; only the commercially made findings for the screw back earrings are marked 'sterling'.  Think the pieces would have been bought new and would probably be no earlier than the 1970s, more likely later. Any info/thoughts/observations appreciated. [ATTACH=full]94948[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]94949[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]94950[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]94951[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]94952[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
