Taxco piece, made in Mexico, and I have the one in black.
Dyed onyx or chalcedony. You see tons of these
Still very desirable just for being red. Red and black vintage jewels sell very well. I have lots of green because that is usually all I can afford (ha, ha!! but I do have a budget and mostly stick to it.). This is very pretty. I would love to have it. Look at the ones I posted.
Yes you're right Valentino, red is actually the most desirable color in terms of ANYTHING lol
@ valentino97 and Stillwater, I sorta argee with the "Red", but something about anything thats"Colbat Blue" stirs up the Mix
I'd say blue is #3 or 4 after red, pink, and purple. Its deffinitely a good color in terms of salability/desirability. My mother was in the antique business for 40 years, she told me that about red years ago and its totally true. Red things will sell where orange or brown or yellow won't. ANYthing be it jewelry or art glass or pottery or clothing or w/e
