I'VE BEEN ALL OVER THE PLACE RECENTLY, CROSSING THRU THREE STATES ON A MAJOR BUYING SPREE, HAVING COME BACK WITH ALL KINDS OF FANTASTIC VINTAGE-TO-ANTIQUE ITEMS. THESE INCLUDE (BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO): SOLID GOLD JEWELRY; GOLD FILLED JEWELRY AND OTHER VICTORIAN AND ART DECO GOLD FILLED ITEMS; STERLING SILVER JEWELRY (& MORE); LOTS OF ANTIQUE "SMALLS" (THINGS THAT FIT IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND); AND MORE(!), SO PLEASE CHECK THEM ALL OUT AS I LIST THEM THIS WEEK.PLEASE NOTE: HERE IS A "COPY AND PASTE" LINK TO MY WIFE'S EBAY STORE, WHERE WE ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPING (EVEN WITH PURCHASES FROM BOTH STORES (PLEASE LET US KNOW WHEN YOU ARE MAKING A PURCHASE, SO THAT WE CAN ACCOMMODATE YOUR NEEDS)) (https://www.ebay.com/str/dallasvalleydiscoveries).I RECENTLY ATTENDED SEVERAL ESTATE SALES, WHERE THERE WAS AN EXCEPTIONAL CONCENTRATION OF QUALITY JEWELRY, COLLECTIBLES AND ANTIQUES. I'LL BE SPENDING THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS WORKING THRU THESE ITEMS TO GET THE LISTED AS FAST AS POSSIBLE FOR YOU (ONE AUCTION WILL HAVE MORE THAN 500 LISTINGS, ALL ON ITS OWN!). THESE NEXT NINE LOTS ALL HAVE 10K & 14K ROSE, WHITE & YELLOW GOLD JEWELRY WITH MINOR CONDITION ISSUES, INCLUDING: MISSING/CRACKED STONES; MINOR PRONG WORK AND SOLDER WORK. SEVERAL OF THESE (ALL OF THE ROSE GOLD RINGS) ARE FROM THE VICTORIAN ERA. SEVEN OF THESE ARE RINGS, PLUS A SINGLE STUD EARRING AND AN ART DECO STICK PIN. HERE IS A LIGHTLY WORN LADY'S or GENT'S SOLID 14K YELLOW GOLD STUD EARRING (A SINGLE, NOT A PAIR) WITH A SUPER RARE TYPE OF BACK THAT HAS TWO SPRINGS (THEY ARE PINCHED TIGHT TO LOOSEN FROM THE SHAFT AND VICE-VERSA). I BELIEVE I'VE ONLY EVER SEEN ONE OT TWO MORE OF THESE IN ABOUT 13 YEARS OF DOING "THIS" FULL-TIME, SO THEY ARE PRETTY RARE AROUND MY PARTS, AT LEAST. THE STUD IS NOT MARKED or SIGNED, UNLESS IT'S TOO WORN TO READ. HOWEVER, THE PINCH BACK IS MARKED & SIGNED "IRK 14K 585M ALPA" (WITH "ALPA" BEING THE MAKER'S NAME). THE PRONGS ARE SLIGHTLY BENT OUTWARD, SO THIS NEXT PART IS AN ESTIMATE ONLY, BUT I BELIEVE THE GEMSTONE WOULD MEASURE APPROX. 4 - 5mm IN DIAMETER. PLEASE NOTE: AS IS VISIBLE IN MOST OF THE PHOTOS, THE SHAFT IS NOT FULLY STRAIGHT. IT'S EASY TO STRAIGHTEN IT BACK OUT, BUT IT CAN BE DONE AT THE SAME TIME YOU HAVE A NEW GEM PLACED IN IT. THE EARRING SHOWS VERY MINOR WEAR AND IS IN VERY GOOD++ CONDITION, OVERALL. THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE LOT IS 0.60 GRAMS. THE PICTURES ARE TO BE CONSIDERED AS PART OF THE DESCRIPTION. PLEASE REVIEW THEM FOR A BETTER IDEA OF VARIETY AND CONDITION, AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. ENJOY!SHIPPING WILL BE $4.50 INSURED USPS GROUND MAIL, AND I WOULD BE MORE THAN WILLING TO COMBINE SHIPPING. I DON'T OFFER A RETURN POLICY, BUT, I WILL STAND BEHIND MY LISTINGS. IF I MAKE A MISTAKE ON MY LISTING, OR I MISUNDERSTAND AN ITEM OR MISS A RELEVANT FLAW ON THE ITEMS UP FOR BID, I WILL DO ANYTHING IN MY POWER TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT FOR THE BUYER, SO BID WITH CONFIDENCE!!!THANKS FOR LOOKING!
