[QUOTE="Eils14, post: 9581873, member: 14776"]Thank you everyone for the responses. I am hoping the 14k proves right and the pearl I think is gritty, so looking really hopeful on that one! :) The one folk have been asking about is not a snake and I attach a photo of it below so you can see it properly, so any thoughts welcome. Do we think it is old? Thank you so much [USER=111]@DragonflyWink[/USER] you have solved for me what was a very mysterious piece! I see now I have part of a tie pin and a spiral shirt stud.....two for the price of one you could say! :joyful: I am wondering by the colour of it if gold is possible on the stud; I did buy an acid testing kit and while I think I am starting to understand the silver one, I am still not sure on the gold, may have to give it a try on it just in case!
