  1. You're absolutely right, @nldionne! Thank you, @davyd286!
  2. Thanks, @Moonstonelover21! His jewelry designs are very cool :)
  3. haha, yes @davyd286! but in terms of shine, the Alice Caviness one wins!
  4. Thank you, davyd286!
  5. Thank you, BELLIN68 :)
  6. Hi @Manikin! Thank you, it's adorable!
  7. I think I've seen a similar bracelet signed Hobe :) Very beautiful; you're so lucky!
  8. I have the same pin, but mine is in bright gold-tone and has a turquoise cabochon in each wing. Very beautiful and well-made, but no signature too.
  9. Oooh, this is a tough one! I have never seen these pieces up-close, but I'd rule #1 out. From what I have seen so far, the Hattie Carnegie mermaid brooch does not have a well-defined facial features,...
  10. Hi Pattywhacks! Thank you, I'm glad you love it! :)
  11. Hello vintagejewel! It certainly attracted a lot of attention, haha. Will definitely search for more Panetta rings!
  12. Hi Hunter. I currently do not have a clear photo of the back, but the symbols are at the back of all Goldette fobs like this one. I'm not sure if it means anything, though. Thank you for commenting!
  13. the coral color is actually much softer than in photos, vintagejewel :)
  14. No problem vetraio50, it has been such fun!
  15. Hi vetraio50. Very cute, a hit with children for sure, LOL!
  16. Oh! So it is a PC and a C?! I have been trying to figure out what the symbol means for the longest of time; thank you for the input, vetraio50!
  17. Hi prospector, thank you for commenting!
  18. Hi davyd286, thank you so much for your comment. I'm glad to be able to help in any way I can!
  19. Hi vintagejewel! I have three more Panetta rings that I recently purchased; photos will be up by year's end, hopefully! Yes, their worth is definitely rising since they are so finely-crafted.
  20. Indeed, vetraio50! I have a similar-looking necklace which I will put up one day; that one is more difficult to find than this one!
  21. Thank you :)
  22. You might want to try joining Jewelry Ring Yahoo group; there are a lot of experts there that may help you :)
  23. Hi bratjdd! I have more snake motif jewelry coming in, but no earrings so far. I have way too many jewelry! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoy them!
  24. Thank you, Carlomar!
  25. Thank you, Kathycat!
  26. I recently tried bidding for a similar bracelet and it went for over hundred dollars! A fun bracelet; in love with the colors!
  27. I love animal bracelets by Ciner. I wish I could afford them!
  28. Always loved this bracelet by Napier. The elephant is too adorable!
  29. Hi chinablue, thank you for commenting! I have another frog necklace and frog ring, but those are for sale as I'm not so much of a frog person. But this bracelet is an exception!
  30. Thank you, vintagejewel!!!
  31. See more
