tot lot find - RSE 825 ?

[Xraywolf]

Found this little beauty today.
Precious metal or not, a very nice looking piece with an elaborate catch style that I have never seen before.
Under magnification the hallmark looks like RSE 825, the high res pic kinda looks more like 925, which makes more sense - Except that it does not appear to be silver.
I am thinking plated something, anyone have any ideas about this ?

Looks to be solid silver......maybe a little tarnish makes it look ....not so silvery.
Nice find!

Hmm I dunno about silver, doesn't have the look, but maybe.
I'm gonna clean it off and give it to my daughter, she took a liking to it already.
I'll tell her the stones are real so be very careful, then when she loses it she'll feel trashed.

exactly what I was abut to write 99% chance it's vermiel...(just so you know it is Sterling silver 92.50% =925)vermiel seems to be the more popular type of jewerly these days..there is a small chance the diamonds are real so I would have them tested...

I have learned long ago to assume that anything I find is scrap until proven otherwise. I did get a quick little boost what I found out it wasn't foil at least, but it was getting dark so I just stuffed it in my pouch and moved on.

I have a diamond tester, they came back negative.
Of course the testers themselves aren't 100% accurate.

Well at least you know that it IS sterling silver AND it is in nice wearable condition!

Congrats!
