This is a Peruvian piece, similar to what Midge purchased. The metal is Alpaca (a nickel alloy) and the stones are most often a type of jasper. I believe that the bugle style beads are a type of reed (grass), but am uncertain about that.

You have a lovely collection of jewelry Leisa! :) What do the 'jewel's feel like to you? For this date, glass is most likely. From what I can see of the clasp pic, it's definitely period. It's possible however, that it's been replaced as you've mentioned, but a clearer shot is needed...

Super! Those are stylized 'concha' with glass stones imitating turquoise. There are a great variety of concha styles, with some taking on a floral design. Oftentimes there is actual crushed turquoise in the glass as well. I like the brushed surface of the copper. It's sure to be a...

Beautiful and very Nouveau!

Nice job! Yep, these are Bell -- and one usually starts seeing this style in the 60's and later. What does the front look like?

Oh how pretty! They look like stamped brass leaves that had a gold gilt at one time. I would say that the flowers and 'carved' green leaves are molded glass -- and look Czech. Turn of the 20th century appears to be right -- yes, let's see the back and the closure.

It was so much fun watching the live version. Especially fun, was that cute little pixie (is Alannah her name?) doing her ballet steps and blowing kisses to the crowd, lol. :camera:

It's wonderful! And Peggy definitely loves her checkered prints and plaids ... http://www.gelatobaby.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/peggy_s2_517x307.jpg http://static.tvguide.com/MediaBin/Galleries/Shows/M_R/Ma_Mh/MadMen/season2/mad-men48.jpg...

What a neat piece! Looks like a Balinese dancer (or possibly Burlesque, lol). She appears to be more on the contemporary side, however if you have a pic of the catch/clasp that's on the chain, that'll provide more info.

Lol. Hopefully she meant Friday, 16 July 2010. This is excellent news! :)

Awww, well someone sure looks relaxed, lol! :asleep:

Awww, sweet furbaby -- I'm sure many of us want to help you realize a good price on this beautiful set Nadene, and help with the puppy's surgery. Please give a heads up when you list. :) :dogs:

Thank you Jennifer. I have some dresses with rust inside the shoulder straps from their old metal hangers, and will try it. :)

P.S. Definitely sell together -- the 'whole is always worth more then the some of it's parts'. :)

Thank you {{{{Mary}}}} :) OK Inkedpalm (I'm may have to call you Inky, since I don't know your first name ;) ). If you take a toothpick and drop a very small (verrryy small) drop of either lemon or lime juice (or straight white vinegar), onto the back of one of the pieces, and then look...

Beautiful set and I agree -- carved Italian oxblood coral and jade or jadeite leaves. The extended pin is meant to further secure it onto a thick coat. Did you purchase your loupe yet, btw? I remember that you had mentioned being in the market for one. If so, let me know and I'll show...

Great bracelet and nice Asian theme. The panels remind me of sails from a Chinese Junk -- something like this perhaps ... http://www.lambert-art.com/sale%20images/Chinese-Junk-final.jpg

I agree and often find that only half of the buyers leave feedback, even when they send a note stating how much they like the item. Sometimes buyers leave fb for sellers all at once and others may simply forget. But when I still sold on ebay, I sometimes felt that 'no news was good news'...

Good for you! And I'm dying to see the bracelet too! :)

I just added this to the facebook Fashion Parade page. WWII Sweetheart Pin http://www.etsy.com/listing/49957333/vintage-40s-wwii-sweetheart-patriotic

I liked it too! And think that the forces of the universe were at work, to make sure that these two 'sister dresses' found each other. :)

Hello! How exciting to be a new store owner. :) Is it an online shop or 'brick and mortar'?

Those are great glasses -- I have a pair of these also! It's great that you've found a tray to match. Men on horseback and preparing to duel are a popular Persian theme -- and are most often a depiction of a young Mohammed and his youthful exploits, in tales from the Koran.

Awww, what a sweet face! :cats:

Fabulous Pauline! And yes, this hairstyle is very flattering and youthful! Wonderful look. :)

How beautiful! And the little butterfly was cooperative as well! :)

The sweet little girl in the foreground adds to the charm as well. :)

Hey Julie -- We have sister compacts, lol (I like the red better!) :)
