This bold and intricate ring is the work of Hans Teppich, an Israeli silversmith who was especially active in Jerusalem during the 1950s. Flattened sterling silver wirework curls around an oval cabochon chrysoprase, which is securely bezel-mounted. The stone bears no scratches or other signs of wear. The band is well wrought and strong. The ring top is large, measuring 1 1/8 inches long by 1 inch wide. The Teppich and sterling marks are inside the band. The ring is a little over a 5.

Costume cuff links that read like their more precious counterparts. Squared, stepped gold-plated frames hold lustered white glass cabochons that resemble mother-of-pearl. They are very well made with secure chains and bails; the backs of two buttons are marked as plated gold, with what looks like a maker’s mark. They are probably European, possibly French by the workmanship. Each button measures ½ inch square.

The rectangular panel of this silver pin has interesting, different textures on back and front. The panel is curved and scalloped along the top and bottom edges with tiny beads and blocks in the mold. The cabochon chrysoprase is prong set above a circular opening, bisected with a flattened silver rod. The rollover clasp is secure; the back of the pin indicates .835 silver. The pin measures 1 ¾ inches long (including the rod) and 1 1/8 inches wide.

This studio-produced ring is formed as an extreme arch with extended edges. The applied decoration of beading interspersed with a wavy silver wire is enhanced with a highly oxidized background. The top protrudes 5/16 inch above the finger; the sides of the band are curved inward, making the ring quite comfortable to wear. The ring is a size 8. Weight: 5.3 grams

A quirky set of sterling silver top hats with intersecting canes, decorated with white glass cabochons. The hats are made of cut and folded lightweight sheets of silver; the canes are more substantial pointed sterling silver rods. The pin is marked sterling on the back; the mark is obscured partially by the applied cane. The earring screw backs are marked silver on the screw tops. All findings are original and secure. Total weight: 9.8 grams

Decorated in Peruzzi’s inimitable style with cast flowers and wirework elements applied to a scrolled frame. The back is marked for Peruzzi Florence, .800 silver. The rollover clasp is original to the pin and in good working order. It measures 2 ¼ inches long by 1 ¾ inches wide. Weight: 21.5 grams

A lovely decoration of pink roses and green leaves on a deep teal blue guilloche background.

The enamel is entirely intact, with no obvious signs of wear, and the silver has a nice, warm patina. The clasp is in good working condition and is very secure...

A large feather pin with incised details along one side and applied tube quill down the center. The back is marked sterling and bears the mark of Navajo silversmith Lloyd Nelson, who apparently is no longer producing.

Comprised of sterling discs decorated with various hammered and molded fruits, applied to a thicker disc.

Of organic design, heavily cast, with textured, pod-like protrusions surrounding two prong-set cabochon amethysts in an S-shaped pattern. The stones show no wear or damage. The inside of the band bears marks for Taxco, an eagle mark for silver (possibly a 3), and the maker’s mark of ERE. The top measures 1 1/8 inches long by a little over ½ inch wide. It is a size 7. Gross weight: 16.7 grams

Nicely designed necklace of linked stylized leaves, each with a tiny applied bead. Modified hook closure is original, cleverly hidden and very secure; all connecting rings between the leaves are soldered closed. The necklace bears the mark of Ateljé Stigbert, a Stockholm workshop started in the early 1940s by metalsmith Stig Engelbert, who died in 1962, according to an online source. It also has an impressed leaf mark, as well as marks for sterling and Sweden...

These abstract earrings are formed from curled white metal rods bisected by long wires with three rough-cut bluish-purple stones at the end. The earrings are marked ‘Mexico’ at the very top of the rods, where the metal is flattened. The stones look like blue tourmaline or, more probably, iolite, uncut and untreated. The total drop of the earrings, starting from the top of the kidney wires, is 3 ¼ inches.
