    One of my favorite finds

    This one popped up in my sand scoop one day.
    I was blown away. It has a square cut blue sapphire
    and 4 diamonds one on each end. kind of reminds me of what
    real spanish treasure should look like. 8)

    Re: One of my favorite finds

    WOW !!!! that is downright impressive.
    I noticed that no-one really utilizes all the signature space provided, so I figured to be REALLY original I would make up the longest signature that I could and probably just leave it as one big run on sentence because all that punctuation just takes up way too much space-HH.

    Sc, what do you know about it? Its a gorgeous find, is it old?
    The only ones for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the sky.

    Have you done any research on this? It looks like it could be very old...
