But I just did a thing. Will post if it works out.

Is that hair? It seems so sad to me that the family let go of it. I’m not sure I would want some random person’s hair but it’s such as sweet idea to honor someone’s memory.

Eep. I didn’t notice that. I know what you mean about seeing antique rings for sale. I wonder why such beautiful pieces find themselves without families and I hope the reasons are not sad ones.

For this piece, especially since it is a mourning ring, there is extra sadness.

ETA I know it was typical of the Victorian era to incorporate hair into mourning jewelry. They did made mourning into a high att from jewelry to all sorts of other remembrance pieces.

Nope—I just blew my “budget” on another item! Stay tuned. Teaser: transitional diamond :-)

I keep thinking of a quote from Mark Twain
“Virtue is insufficient temptation” and I have been far from virtuous
 
I do like the sapphires on this bar pin:

I have had one of those three you listed in my ebay cart before, wonder if this is a good seller to buy from?

So this sold again—for $1009 this time. Hope it went to a PSer who will post about it. Or, if a scam, will we see it sell for a third time??!!

Guess what’s for sale again?! The description says a couple of the diamonds have chips. I don’t remember seeing that before so I wonder if that’s new and it was returned because of that.
