I’d guess that the coral one up top was made in a French colony, because the round part of the pendant was made using a French coin. There’s a few nice necklaces here, including ones made from amber, pearl, and coral. Those beads in the box are either glass or stone. The one on the bottom is made from wood, and I think the black and white one is plastic. I think those pink necklaces are made from some kind of stone. That scarab pendant is nice, I think it’s made from silver & turquoise. None are marked, but I suspect they were made in Japan. I saved a bunch of those colourful, nature themed brooches/pendants. I don’t think any of it is particularly valuable, but it’s still quality costume jewelry. Many pieces were touristy, made from shells, stones, or other materials from their area of origin.Ī lot of these are made from different kinds of shell. It’s in pretty good condition for its age! This jewelry box is very old – there’s some writing on the bottom indicating that it was gifted way back in 1881. It was quite the mass of stuff! At front right is a vintage Gubelin watch box that I sold quickly for 80$. Here’s the collection after my first round of sorting. I assume some pieces were kept, but there was still lots left for me. There were only two bags out, but they contained a well tousled collection of jewellery. This was one of my better hauls from this spot.
