A large bangle composed of 63 thin, white metal bangles, each decorated with oxidized and impressed bisecting lines.

The composite thickness of the bracelet is about 2 inches around. It is unmarked.

This bracelet is quirky and fun -- and you'll probably never see another quite like it! It's composed of five rectangular silver plaques, each fused with a layer of brass. The quirky part is three silver and brass protrusions of varying heights whimsically applied to each panel, the highest one rising about 1/2 inch from the surface. The hook clasp and connecting bars are hand wrought, leaving the hammer marks and imprecise shapes for a lovingly homemade look...

This pin is a simple design but an unusual one. It is a large 11cm semicircle—or it might be described as one-third of a full moon. This rarely seen pin was, according to the Georg Jensen company, designed by Gail Spence for Hans Hansen in the late 1980s. Hans Hansen became part of Georg Jensen in 1992. Since it has both hallmarks it was probably produced around that time. It is no longer in production.
This pin is a late 20th century rendition of a traditional Russian balalaika composed of sterling silver strings and fittings on a triangular piece of amber. The neck has a layer of what looks like pressed wood to serve as the fingerboard. There is a mark for sterling on the back of the frame and what are probably the maker’s initials of SP; the Polish mark for sterling, 1986 to the present, is on the pin stem...
