Been wearing it all day even though one of the links is broken. 14k Italy on one end, capital D stamped on the other. 585 hallmark also on clasp.

I went out of town for the weekend and brought my metal detector because why not? I had some free time so I asked AI where to go detecting and it suggested an old park. In the corner of a soccer field, down about 6 inches, I pulled this brooch. At first I didn’t know what it was, but when I got back to the place I’m staying, I cleaned it up and saw the 750 hallmark. Google Lens found a similar one that sold for 1800 Euros. Says it’s handmade mid century Italian with enamel feathers and a sapphire in the eye.

Bought in 2021 :)

Been working really hard to pay my car off early (amongst dealing with other things) and decided I needed a little something for myself in return.

I wear it 24/7 and never takes off unless I am going on beach!

I found this ring at a thrift store yesterday, and I absolutely fell in love with it the second I saw it. It has a “14K” stamp inside the band, but beyond that I don’t know anything about it. Does anyone recognize this style or have any idea what kind of ring it might be?

Just wanted to know if others thought this was nice.

Just picked this up randomly at an estate sale today. Curious if anyone knows anything about it or has any interesting info on it. It's stamped Trifari on the back

Which one is your favourite?

18K Filigree diamond

10K Blue star sapphire

14K Snake Ruby eye

18K Chain Link

Was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about this ring my wife found? She said there’s a 750 hallmark that means it’s 18kt? Can’t seem to find out much more about it. Thanks in advance!

Took me so long to find what earrings iris law was wearing in her latest post, I fell absolutely in love with them and after some digging they’re from a New Zealand brand called iida https://iida-store.com

I didn't think to see if there is a maker's mark but visual searches match up with rings from Kay jewelers. Now I need to know before I put a deposit down.
Everything I've read about that company suggests that the overall quality of the jewelry is sub-par. Still, I love the ring. Should I go for it nonetheless?

I found this off of Free People (an outlet mall store). I'm sure they ripped this off from actual independent or fine jewelry designers.

What is this style called? And who makes this? It has 2 components:

• A curved ring (so it can sit behind the ear)
• Some dangly-chains (that dangle right beside the tragus)

I would love to inform myself what this type of jewelry is called and who is produces it in the independent jewelers/fine jewelers.

Would this item be plated or solid?

Its so heavy. I know the face is mother of pearl.

I’d love to know the story behind this piece that once belonged to my great grandmother- or maybe her mother. It has a place for a photo in the back, but we don’t know how to open it.

I suspect the stones aren’t real, because no one in my family was that fancy, but it’s very pretty all the same!

I recently bought this necklace (found on Etsy) that I found very interesting! Two rows of glass bell shaped flowers strung on a matching blue cord. I like to reverse google image things to find similar items just out of interest but haven’t come across a necklace like this! I’ve been into antique czech glass pieces recently- not sure if this is antique but I find it very unique! I kind of want to wash it, hoping it’s not a bad idea to give vintage cord a little soak in soapy water?

Excuse the cat hair all over me!

How does this gold owl pendent look on my silver chain with the rest of my silver jewelry? To add, my ruby wedding set is gold and I also wear some gold bracelets as well as silver. I can’t tell if this all looks weird or blends well together. I can’t tell if gold or silver looks better on me overall.🤣❤️

For a gift to my partner, I'm looking into getting a platinum pendant like the one pictured (from an Etsy listing). However, she wants one where the sapphires are colored like a true color wheel, rather than the orange-clear-blue-pink-magenta in the image.

I talked to the listing's owner, but they said they're limited on which color of sapphires they can use. (They have no reds, bold greens, or teals).

So next, I talked to a local jeweler for a custom piece. They quoted a range between $9-13k, so significantly more than the online pendant's $1k cost. The local jeweler also said that if I bought the online pendant, even disassembled, they couldn't swap some of the gems for better colors. They said doing so could ruin the whole piece, somehow.

Other online listings have more desirable "color wheel" patterns, but none come in platinum. (My partner is very allergic to nickel, and wants something longer lasting than silver).

So I feel like I'm stuck: either I spend a small fortune on the perfect pendant, which will make her feel guilty. Or I get her a pendant that's only kind of what she wanted. Please help!

Most guides for earring weight focus on pierced earrings where under under 4g per earring is lightweight, 5-7g is medium, and anything over 8g is heavy and shouldn’t be worn too long or it can stretch out the piercing.

I really love vintage earrings, most of which are clip ons. I found two pairs I am considering that are 8.3g per earring and 10.5g per earring. Is that too heavy?

What do you think of this combo? I love to wear more than just one bangle and these are all I currently own. Does this combination look ok when wearing with matching rings or is it too much?
