Asian treasures... Jewelry

[Beachkid23]

One house I stopped in today and a community sale was one that had a sale last year and I bought a lot of good jewelry from her. Today I just bought it all. One lady was buying up some stuff. It look pretty good so I just asked how much for all of it and she said $25!

This pearl necklace has a large 14 K diamond clasp on it. I've never seen a clasp like it!




Jade, cinnabar, cloisonné with matching 14 K earrings. Some of them have the guilt silver clasps.



Cloisonné Onyx and 14 K. Along with an Onyx and some kind of white glass necklace with guilt silver clasp.



Like always we save the best for last though. Amethyst guilt silver beaded cloisonné necklace. Everyone of those beads are silver with a enamel.



These next pieces are probably going to an auction house here. They are all solid ivory the one has Onyx. But the auction house is the only place I know where to sell them at.








Then I stopped at one other yard sale and picked up Porsche Carrera sunglasses. Paid $50 for the pair. Ranges between I think 175 and $250 each. The bottom left there are boewing Carrera glasses!! pretty sweet!! The were a couple other good things today but the jewelry and the glasses were definitely the best.





Thanks for looking. I'm probably going to spend a lot of time researching the stuff but I stopped at one estate sale where the lady was a dealer and she offered 1000 for the necklaces. And gave me her number to think about it. Hope y'all had some good luck as well!

I bought this from her last year. Along with some other things. So when I saw her I actually recognize her for once. And I had a good idea who I was dealing with as soon as I saw who was selling the stuff. I think I got like $800 for this bracelet.

How can you tell its ivory and not bone? Always gets me

You cleaned up! That silver beaded necklace is a stunner. If that's what you selling imagine what she's keeping

I picked up a baggie she had to put the stuff in. And there was a receipt at the bottom of it for $1480 for the pearl necklace with the diamond clasp. That wAs in Hong Kong though. Didn't have a date. But the paper was very brittle and falling apart too.

I'll post a picture close up when I get home today. But the bone is like crisscrossed. Or the way the veins run in it.

Sweet there was a little extra bonus in the necklaces. The pendant on the jade necklace that I took off is 14 K. They seem to have some pretty good values on them. It's 22 g

.

As for the ivory here's a close-up on the horse. You can see the type of green on the stone itself has like a wavy crossing pattern to it.

Dude, you were not supposed to go shopping this weekend, but I'll forgive you because boy, did you clean up! Awesome job!!! Congrats on super duper finds. Keep us informed on what happens with all this stuff. The jade, get it checked out. There is jade and there is jade. Good, grade A jade goes for a lot. Seems like this lady has good stuff, so I am willing to bet it's grade A jade, and not jadeite or whatever the lower grade stuff I get is.

Boeing aviators sold for $225.00. Which I had just listed them for 300 or best offer. But I'm good with that! I hope I did not jinx it though because he has not paid yet.

 

[artslinger]

Wow, unbelievable score, but believable! Only in America! Congratulations on all of those finds. I would have past everything for sure! Thanks for the pics and details. All the best!

Thanks, I mean to be honest a lot of it's just stuff I've sold before. And I spend a lot of time checking sold listings on eBay. I don't have a college degree so I need to either do well at this or go find a bridge to Live under!

(Oh, I have also read every single thread on the forum I think five times over) maybe not everyone but I certainly pay attention to what people write in here that's for sure. So it's you you all I owe my thanks to!!
