Gold brooch - unmarked 18k

[randazzo1]

One of my thrifts has been spotting the obvious marked pieces. Must have a new person. But they still have not caught onto small marks, european marks etc and are fortunately hopeless with unmarked pieces

Only marking is the....gram weight hand etched on the back. I guess wherever they sell these they sell em by the gram. 6.68 w the pearl. Solid 18k.

And a watch - marked on the inside (lol) 14k


Happy hunting.

Great finds! It goes to show that they can’t keep track of everything.

Indeed! Mine works, but the face is kind of faded. Band is sterling (odd - i usually see gold filled). But who is gonna complain lol. I like the shape of ur case better.

I had an 18K flower exactly like that. I got lucky, mine was very large and in charge at close to 20 grams. Found it in the middle of a huge jewelry bin that I paid out the ear for. I made out on that bin...

Great watch, too!! When thrifts are putting out jewelry like that, I go back every other day, sometimes every day just to be safe. Gotta claim that stake!

Yeah sometimes gold jewelry doesn't get marked. To me it looks like the stuff produced by Mikimoto of Japan or some Asian jeweler?
