I received the largest butterfly as a present from one of my students about five years ago. It can be worn as a brooch or a pendant. It is rather attractive but I don't think the quality is good. It is marked 925 and appears to be rhodium plated but the mother of pearl and turquoise accents seemed to be just glued in. To be honest, I would not buy it if I saw it. The little blue butterfly pin is made of brass and has beautiful foil-backed rhinestones. It's too bad that it has a bit of wear on one of its wing:( . The last one is a pendant made of a shell. I have seen similar designs on line but I believe that the ones with the metal rim are bit less common.
Thanks for looking:)
Thanks so much, mikelv85, Jewels, Manikin, and aghcollect :)
Now this I love very much as I have a thing for butterflies. I came upon my mans ring the other day that I have been trying top upload but having a problem could be something silly I'm doing, who knows. Hit & miss for me. I hope I get to post it as it's pre 1950's, am starting to wonder if it was his grandfathers. I think it is Georg Jensen. I cannot read all the markings.
Thanks, FancyGirl. I just had a quick look at your beautiful collection. Too many things to love - I am in a rush now; but I will "re-visit" on the weekend:)
Zowie, good luck with your post! Sometimes I cannot read the markings but when I take a photo and enlarge it, it becomes visible.
Many thanks also to nutsabotas6:)
That's what I was hoping but no luck even after cleaning. I might take some more & try them. Once uploaded they might enlarge again
Many thanks also to: SEAN68, 50vetraio50, and nutsabotas6:)
