Vintage Bling

[Aurora et luna]

I have picked up some superb vintage and antique bling over the years and it's such a pity there isn't a visual record as most of them have been deleted from my files.
If you have pics of beautiful vintage or antique bling that you would like to share please post them here.
To start the ball rolling, I am posting what is probably my most beautiful piece in my collection.
A pre 1932 15ct Gold Dragon-fly Brooch.

Now you've done it :lol:
I'll show this link to Peter Davis & hopefully it might get him to crack open a safe & show us some of his vintage bling
That his bought over the years & hasn't melted ,
If he buys a piece & it's to nice to melt he'll keep it , doesn't happen often , but he does have a thing for cuff-links :lol:
He has some very nice cuff-links
I'll have to bring a camera with me next time

Hi, a few nice silver items i have.. turqouise Neraho Jewellery ranks right up there for me.

Love the symbolism of the two headed bird, and the venican blown glass cross size broach also - both these are hand made in Scotland i believe.

Here is a "Masonic" ring, from 1931 in 22ct (916), 8.8g, I bought a few months ago.

Not strictly vintage bling, however I think this bespoke Percy Marks piece deserves to be noticed.
It's a 0.38oz Nugget set with a 20 point diamond.
The nugget was XRFed and its purity is 99% fine gold.

Pandoro bracelet ,I've been told it would sell for over $10k in a shop window
Around 70gm of 14K
Looks to be genuine Pandoro , but it hasn't been confirmed yet

Looks like a Cartier box.... Is it? Therefore, is the ring Cartier???
