How To Sell Antique Jewelry ? by
Talal Itani
Dear Friends,
I would like to know how to best sell Estate Antique Jewelry. I have some
pieces from the late 1800's. Other pieces from the early 1900's. And some

crudely-cut diamonds. I locked into Ebay, but I found...

Fake turquoise - What is it? by
Andy Dingley
I bought some turquoise at the weekend. Nice looking piece, but I paid
very little and bought it from a retail "shopping mall" fossil shop, so
work it out for yourself.... I'm in the UK BTW, so it's not a local
stone, nor common, and I certainly don't know anything about it myself.
My plan was to...

Encyclopaedia junkies / jewelry photos by
Svein Olav Nyberg
When I was a kid, I used to open the family encyclopaedia at a random
page and start reading, and then followed the references wherever it
lead me. At the time, I thought I was a rather odd person for doing so,
but I none the less enjoyed it. I have later learned that this hobby is
quite common, as...

identifying whether or not a piece of jewelry is gold by
yawnmoth
I have a few gold colored pieces jewelry that I think may be gold but
am not entirely sure. Is there any way I could determine, for sure?

and stuff that is solid gold?

threaded screws in 15th. century Sri Lanka ? by
orang37
Hi, I hope this post is not OT in this group; if it is, my apologies, and
I'm sure Peter will remove it.
I am having a debate with a friend of mine about the origins of a Buddha
image that appears to be 15th. century Sri Lankan in style.
We can safely assume lost-wax casting was the only method...

with my school name and major? my school charges 200 bucks for silver
ring. the silver content is worth about a dollar as silver is about 12
buck an ounze.

How to confirm that titanium is genuine... by
BD
Hey, all.
I just bought a watch which purports to be made of titanium. It all
looks legit, it's a Seiko, it has a serial number and a certificate
with it - but this purchase was made via EBay, and I want to be
*sure*...
It certainly is lightweight. But how else can I establish for certain
that...
