Letting go my stash, in order to raise small funds for Edwina. This weekend’s listings are Pricescope only and won’t be listed anywhere else. If anyone is interested in buying, I’ll make an Etsy listing with all the details and tracking number on the shipping, and post the link in each thread.
——————————————————-
This is a stunning antique lorgnette chain, which I paid an obscene price for, but hardly ever wear. It’s going to be listed on Etsy at a higher price eventually if it doesn’t sell here, but PS friends get first dibs.
14k yellow gold, measuring 23 inches long, with a 2.5 inch drop, this is both delicate and strong, designed to hold an enamel watch pendant (long since lost). It weighs 5.51g and the spring rings (both of them) are sturdy and function perfectly. There are three blue and white enamel Batons, the bottom of which was chipped sometime in the last 100 years or so, which a jeweller has gently polished down smooth, and is visible in the photo with the arrow.
This thing is just gorgeous and I have tenderly worn it a few times and keep it clean and safe. I have no idea if it was made by a famous name house like Tiffany or Fabergé but it is so carefully fabricated that it seriously makes me wonder. Only an expert appraiser would be able to tell me but that’s not in the cards. Asking exactly half of what I paid, with free shipping. $350
Thanks for looking.
