Stunning Art Deco Faux Jadeite Silver Cocktail Ring

$115 USDStunning Art Deco Faux Jadeite Silver Cocktail Ring

Jewelry:Vintage:Rings:Art Deco:Silver
A stunning Art Deco Ring set with a gorgeous Jadeite or dyed Agate stone. My Jeweler thought it was perhaps Jadeite or possibly dyed Agate, so I have priced it as the latter. Set in silver which is not marked but tests as a lower grade than Sterling, probably .700 or .800 grade, the mount holding the stone is typical of early 1920's pieces. The Ring is probably of Chinese origin. The Ring is a generous US Size 6 (UK Size L 1/2). The stone set Crown measures 1/2 inch by just over 1 1/8 inches. ...
Beautifully Detailed Large Gilded Flower Clip with Garnet Lucite Stones

$55 USDBeautifully Detailed Large Gilded Flower Clip with Garnet Lucite Stones

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Gilded:Clip:Lucite
One of my favorite pieces, a beautifully made and detailed Clip with a highly gilded finish. Usually these type of pieces are set with Rhinestones, but amazingly the garnet color prong set faceted stones in this clip are Lucite. The Clip measures 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 at the widest points and has a beautifully detailed sprung clip on the reverse. In excellent condition with no wear to the gilded finish.

Jewelry:Vintage:Sterling Silver:Carnelian:Cornelian:Pendant:Necklace
A vintage Pendant set with a slice of polished Carnelian held in a mount which is marked on the reverse 'Silver'. On a Sterling Silver chain which measures 18 1/2 inches long and fastens with a spring clasp which is marked 'Sterling'. The Pendant measures 3/4 inch across and 1 1/4 inches down (not including the hanging loop). The lovely stone has faint bands running through it and is semi translucent when held to the light. In superb condition with no damage.
Gorgeous Faux Pearl Lily Cascade Brooch

$45 USDGorgeous Faux Pearl Lily Cascade Brooch

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Cascade:Brooch:C1950
A fabulous vintage Brooch shaped as a Lily with a cascade of gray faux pearls and gilded metal beads suspended on metal links. In a richly textured gold color metal, the Brooch measures 2 5/8 inches across and 2 1/4 inches down, and fastens with a roll-over safety clasp. In superb condition, there is a rub to the gilded metal surface in the reverse and also on the back edge of the brooch, but neither of these can be seen from the front, so do not affect the appearance of the brooch. There is no ...
Pristine Rhinestone Brooch Unsigned Vintage Beauty Still on Store Card

$35 USDPristine Rhinestone Brooch Unsigned Vintage Beauty Still on Store Card

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Rhinestone:Brooch:Unsigned:Carded
Don't we wish that we could find all of our Vintage Costume Jewelry this way - still on the Original Card! A gorgeous silver tone metal Brooch set with pale and cornflower blue foil back Rhinestones pinned to the card, which reads 'Distinctive Jewellery' and at the bottom 'Superior Quality'. There is a Bee logo between the words Superior Quality, so I would think that this would be a maker's logo. This is English and I would think dates from the 1950/60's. There is a pencil written number on the ...

$240 USD Offers ConsideredFabulous Art Deco Marbled Butterscotch Bakelite Flapper Necklace

Fabulous Vintage Sterling Silver Vermeil Asian Faces Pendant Earrings

$115 USDFabulous Vintage Sterling Silver Vermeil Asian Faces Pendant Earrings

Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Vintage:Costume:Gilded:Pendant:Earrings:Vermeil
A gorgeous pair of vintage Vermeil (gold on silver) Sterling Silver Pendant Earrings on posts for pierced ears. Marked on the posts '925' for Sterling Silver, there is also a Maker's logo, which looks perhaps like a bird in flight. I am not too sure, as it is so small, and it is certainly not one that I recognize. The Earrings measure just under 1 1/2 inches long in total, with the pendants measuring 1 inch long and 1/2 inch wide. They are set with small rhinestones, clear, emerald green and ...
Vintage English Signed Sterling Silver Landscape Moss Agate Brooch

$137 USDVintage English Signed Sterling Silver Landscape Moss Agate Brooch

Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Moss Agate:Landscape:English:Brooch:Signed:Sheffield Assay Office:1973
A gorgeous Sterling Silver Brooch set with a large polished Moss Agate stone which is naturally patterned in such a way that it gives the impression of a Tree or a piece of Seaweed. Quite incredible that this kind of miniature picture is formed naturally. The Brooch measures 1 5/8 inches across and 1 1/8 inches down, and bears the full British Sterling Silver Hallmarks for the town of Sheffield in England for the year 1973, and also the Maker's Mark 'E.J.C'.

Stunning Vintage Boxed Silver Vermeil Red Rhinestone Cocktail Ring

$115 USDStunning Vintage Boxed Silver Vermeil Red Rhinestone Cocktail Ring

Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Vintage:Red:Rhinestone:Cocktail:Ring:Boxed:Signed
I haven't been able to identify the Country of origin of this stunning Ring, I believe the inscription on the inside of the Box lid 'Echt Silber' is German - although languages are definitely not my strong point! From the marks on the Ring, I would guess that it comes from Austria, as it doesn't bear the full German marks, but as I really cannot identify them - it is just a guess. From the style of the Ring, I would date it to the 1930's or perhaps the 1940's, but without being able to decipher ...
Fabulous Vintage French Art Deco Pearl Lined Blown Glass Bead and Berry Necklace

$140 USDFabulous Vintage French Art Deco Pearl Lined Blown Glass Bead and Berry Necklace

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Art Deco:Beaded:Necklace
A fabulous Art Deco Necklace strung with graduated hand blown pearl lined glass beads with clusters of mocha and coffee colored 'berries'. Pearl lined beads are glass beads that have the pearlescent effect on the inside of the bead, so unlike faux pearls, they will never 'peel'. These particular beads have a lovely warm color to them. From the style and understated elegance, I believe this to be of French origin. Strung on the original silver color metal wire chain, the Necklace fastens with a ...

$425 USD Offers ConsideredBeautiful Art Deco Gilded Silver and Garnet Pendant Necklace

There are 2 round links in the chain about half way up on each side ...

$30 USDVintage Black and White Enameled Daisy Brooch

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Enamel:Flower:Brooch:C1960
These striking Brooches were all the rage in the early 1960's, and this one has survived in excellent condition. Measuring 2 inches in diameter, the brooch fastens with a roll-over safety clasp. Simply enameled in black and white, there is really no damage to the enamel at all, although there are a couple of areas towards the centre of the flower where the enamel seems to have been missed off, although this is only visible with magnification - even though my pictures are magnified, it is not ...

Early Unsigned Miriam Haskell Bakelite Leaf and Berries Brooch

$325 USDEarly Unsigned Miriam Haskell Bakelite Leaf and Berries Brooch

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Miriam Haskell:Bakelite:Carved:Brooch:Pin:C1930
A fabulous large early unsigned Miriam Haskell Bakelite Brooch dating to the 1930's. Although the Brooch is unsigned, the design and the components used are all indicators to this being a genuine Haskell piece. The green Bakelite leaves in the brooch are identical to one pictured on the excellent Cathy Gordon website (co-author of Miriam Haskell Jewelry), under the Signatures, Findings, Beads section (picture #74) and the pierced flat-back pin back with raised edges which the beads are wired to, ...

Fabulous Vintage Summer Garden Murano Art Glass Necklace

$245 USDFabulous Vintage Summer Garden Murano Art Glass Necklace

Jewelry:Vintage:Necklaces:Art Deco:Murano Glass
I just could not believe this Necklace when I first saw it - it is one of those pieces that a Collector dreams about, but doesn't seriously believe that anything this gorgeous was ever made! To see it and hold it is a dream come true. Strung on a silver color wire, the Necklace measures 17 1/4 inches long and fastens with a spring clasp. It has 9 clusters of colorful hand blown beads representing various flowers, the most prominent appear to be Sunflowers or perhaps large Daisies. The necklace ...
Gorgeous Vintage Faux Pearl and Aurora Crystal Bead Collar Necklace

$97 USDGorgeous Vintage Faux Pearl and Aurora Crystal Bead Collar Necklace

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Faux Pearl:Aurora Borealis:Crystal:Collar:Necklace
A dramatic vintage Collar Necklace strung with faux Pearl beads and cleverly overlaid with Aurora Borealis Crystal Beads. The faux Pearl beads are plastic while the Aurora Borealis beads are glass, so the necklace has a pleasing weight to it. The Aurora Borealis beads are not immediately noticeable at first glance as they blend in with the pearl beads, but the slightest movement causes the necklace to shimmer with quite vivid colors. The necklace probably dates to the 1950's. The Necklace ...

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Vintage:Art Deco:Brick:Rhinestone:Bracelet:Signed:C1920
A fabulous all original Art Deco Bracelet set with clear Rhinestones which, in artificial light, sparkle like diamonds. Circa the 1920's, the Bracelet is set in a white metal, and is marked on the inside with the number 1138525, which is probably a Registration or Patent Number. There is also a word above this, but it is too rubbed to make out. I have seen similar bracelets that were made in Germany - so whether this originates from there, I cannot tell. Measuring 7 1/8 inches long and just ...

Gorgeous Vintage French Art Glass Pendant Necklace

$125 USDGorgeous Vintage French Art Glass Pendant Necklace

Jewelry:Vintage:Necklaces:Art Glass:French
A gorgeous vintage Necklace in a rich gold tone metal and set with two green Art Glass stones. Although unsigned, I strongly believe, from the style of the Necklace, that this is French - although I wouldn't want to hazard a guess as to the age. The Necklace measures 17 inches long and fastens with a totally concealed Hook clasp. Once fastened, the clasp appears to be part of the chain. It is not at the back of the neck, but slightly to the side, so it is easier to fasten. The Pendant drop ...
Vintage Gilded Silver and Marcasite Stag Pendant Brooch

$95 USDVintage Gilded Silver and Marcasite Stag Pendant Brooch

Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Gilded:Marcasite:Stag:Brooch:Pendant:Signed
This gorgeous Pendant Brooch is a bit of a mystery to me. I purchased it with a lot of vintage/antique Scottish Jewelry and with the prancing Stag portrayed in the gilded center of the brooch, assumed that it was Scottish. Having looked closer, I have to conclude that it is not Scottish, but I have no idea of the Country of origin. The Brooch is marked on the back with what looks like 5C. followed by either 2 numbers or 2 letters. Very difficult to make out because the letters or numbers are ...
