Antique Victorian Lovers Knot Pin or Brooch with Small Opal

vintage_jewelry-13a-55

Lovely, very good condition Victorian lover’s knot pin accented with a small opal- the pin is just under an inch in diameter. There is some tarnish and wear to the pin that can be expected of a pin this old.

Old Vintage Etched Coastal Scene Locket

Before the economy went belly up- I sold just about any kind of jewelry on eBay. Since things aren’t selling I have narrowed my focus down to jewelry I really like and that sells. Lately I have been selling a lot of Victorian jewelry, vintage lockets, cameos (real and faux or resin), costume and sterling rings, vintage sterling charms and bracelets, and sterling. It seems like at least for me- the market has really tapered off for rhinestone jewelry and signed costume pieces.

Here’s a recent piece I sold. I love the shape of this old locket and the coastal scene is just beautiful.

Vintage Micro Mosaic Earrings

Here are some pretty micro mosaic earrings to make up for posting a compact yesterday. Micro mosaic jewelry is really popular with collectors and the more ornate pieces, including picture frames bring in premium prices. I have included a link to the Wikipedia page on micro mosaics because they have a superb example of a Victorian era micro mosaic brooch. Take a look!
