Hi folks! I'm hoping some of you who are better at identifying fur will be able to help me out with this circa 1950s fur wrap. It looks to me like it may have been sheared, which is probably why I am confused by it! :) Also, it appears that it may be somewhat curly, when not sheared...Could it...

I will second Barbara, that I have had several rayon (and/or rayon blend) dresses over the years that were made of a similar, satin-backed, woven fabric.
Thank you, Janice and Bonnie!
Yes, Bonnie, I know what you mean about “mother’s” jewelry, with the gemstone representing children’s birthstones (or possibly other personal/sentimental stuff).
If it is in fact 18K gold, I will have to decide whether to buy a testing kit, and sell it as such...
Thought I'd post this on the public forum, since it may help other folks in future...I'm only slightly embarrassed to say that I don't know enough about jewelry marks to be certain on this piece. My research was inconclusive, partly because I'd rather trust the experts here, than stuff found by...
It may be after Labor Day, but we're not quite willing to give up on summery dresses, yet! :)

Claire, how awful, that this happened to you! It's horrible to feel invaded in your own home.
I don't have any truly valuable stuff, but I love the costume jewelry that I have collected over the years, or received as gifts form loved ones. Losing it would indeed be sad--I'm so sorry that the...
Thanks for your (always valuable!) input, Jonathan!
I wanted to make sure that it wasn’t some kind of manufacturing flaw. Knowing that there are other shoes out there like this makes me feel better about listing them for sale. :)
I have this pair of ankle strap sandals that I was preparing to list on my website, and then I noticed something unusual about them. (How I missed it while I was photographing them is weird--must have been really focused that day, LOL!)
I believe that they date from the mid-to-late 1950s. But...
