Hiya! I found some interesting pieces of jewelry recently and was wondering what era they came from. What do y’all think? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello, Caleb,
So glad you joined us here! I saw this yesterday, but then got interrupted and never came back, so I'm glad Maggie said something.
I have some thoughts on this, but first--do any of them have signatures? I know that the peach set and the two grey sets won't, but I'm wondering about the goldtone set and the goldtone with spike rhinestones. I'm thinking they don't, but they might. ???
 
I would date the faux coral (plastic) earrings - first photo and the earrings to the right (top photo) C. 1950s. The Florentine (brushed gold tone) finish earrings and brooch I would date very late 1950s - early 1960s. The green faux Mabe pearl earrings - C.1960s and the pierced dangle earrings C. 1970s ish or later - they could be '80s.

Fantastic! I've never heard of Florentine and Mabe when describing jewelry. Thank you for that!!
