I love this - it's so simple and so pretty. Was in a box of junky costume jewelry priced at 1 Euro apiece. The condition of the MOP is perfect. They are on a cream colored backing of some sort instead of just being mounted "naked". LOL! Makes it much more secure. Whatever was used feels warm to the touch, so perhaps a resin.
Thanks for looking!

So pretty...and yet simple design !
Nice find!!
Hi val - I remember that beautiful bracelet. Mine is definitely silver - passed the acid test with flying colors.
Ms.CrystalShip - Thanks! I run into that problem here, too. I just keep walking. I really have to look carefully but quickly when I am examining jewelry so the seller doesn't get suspicious. I figure it's their responsibility to know what they are selling, and if I buy silver or gold for a buck then it's not my problem, LOL! Most of the time (luckily!) the thrift shops here don't know what they are selling. :-))))))) I had to laugh the other day when a good friend told me about the owner of a second hand shop I frequent. The woman said to my friend (about me): "I think she's a professional, so I examine every piece of jewelry I put out for sale." I recently bought that Sterling silver Scallop shell keepsake box from that shop - for 3,50 Euro which, at the time, was less than $4.00. Yep, she does a good job examining her items - NOT!!
