Gorgeous carved shell cameo by world leader, Italian jeweler Giovanni Apa in original box. The detail is exceptional, from the wisps of hair to the sultry eyes to the pearl drop earrings and the delicate pearl necklace. The cameo is bezel set in an 18K yellow gold oval frame and has both a pin on the back and pendant bale. Measures about 1-1/8 inch by 5/8-inch, weighs a total of 0.4 TOz, and is marked 750 on the back (for 18K gold). Excellent condition. Simply beautiful.

This is a fantastic Mason’s Guild logo lapel pin. It is made of 14K yellow gold and has a tiny diamond at the top of the compass. The pin on the back has an old tubular hinge and a C-clasp, indicating that this is from the turn of the last century. The pin is not marked, but tests at 14K gold. Weighs 0.025 Troy ounces (0.8 grams) and measures about 5/8-inch tall. Excellent condition.

Superbly carved nephrite jade pendant with jade beads on a silver bezel and chain. The jade is somewhat opaque and graduates in color from white to green to dark green. Nice flower design on the jade medallion. The oval medallion is about 1-1/2 x 1-1/8 inch in size. The 18-1/2 inch chain looks handmade, as does the rest of the piece. The bezel is marked: Sterling. Excellent condition.

Lovely brilliant semi-precious stones are prong set in this 14K gold flower setting. Gemstones are: garnets (2), blue topaz (2), peridot and citrine, with a center clear crystal. The piece is not marked, but I measured it several times with readings of between 14K and 18K gold. I am pricing it at 14K, but it could be higher gold content. Total weight, including stones, is about 0.05 Troy ounces (1.55 grams). Measures about 9/16 inch across. Excellent condition. Chain not included.

Mid-1800s yellow gold drop earrings. These appear to bear the hallmark of the city of Altenburg, Thuringia, Germany, pre-1886. The purity designation is 800, which indicates near 20K gold (19.2K actually). My tester indicates greater than 18K gold. Each has a nice dark blue sapphire in the middle of a gold "flower" and a pearl at the top. The sapphires are about 6mm diameter; the pearls about 4mm. Total weight is about 3.2 gm (0.10 TOz). Drop length is about 1 3/8 inch. Excellent cond ...click for details
