  26. It's definitely not transferware, and thanks for pointing out the landscape and ethnicity of the people. I am really hoping to find someone that can help ID this as it's really an amazing item. I mig...
  27. It doesn't appear to be bezel set to me. Especially viewing the pear shapes up close. The prongs are not even touching the stone. More of an ornate setting than structural. That said, I will research...

  35. Definitely not Hematite! I have several Hematite. I have seen this exact bead...somewhere! Hmmm marcasite?? I will investigate that...I know the spacer bars are sterling or better...
  36. Well they are super stretched for my pin head!
  37. Thanks all for your speedy replies! Something I strive for!! In regards to the bead material. They aren't cold as you feel with glass and they don't have that cheap plastic feel...sorry in my descrip...
