That ring is an emerald cut topaz!!

I am almost positive that that little wrench money clip is actually a tie clip. The "Hand" is protection from the Evil Eye called a Hamsa, popular in North Africa and Middle East. Thanks for the fun! 👋

The Snap-on Tool Clip is a Tie Bar.

The pins you thought might be hatpins are called stick pins and were usually worn on the lapel.

I noticed one of the items was Sarah Coventry. That jewelry was popular in the 1960s and 1070s in the US. I believe you could only order from an individual (kind of like Tupperware or Avon). Very good quality costume jewelry.

There is a ton of costume jewelry that is far more expensive than most diamonds and gold pieces.

I love how any time Melissa gives a piece of Jewelry a second look Alex asks her if she likes it and might want to keep it. Not that she could not just keep any piece she wanted to have anyway, but it is sweet that he asks her.

The pearl beads are probably covering over opal glass, if they’re from the fifties or sixties( or earlier) . The ring with the amber colored stone is maybe topaz, my birthstone. The hand is called a Hamsa hand or Hand of Fatima; it’s good luck. Rhinestones are really collectible. The baby spoons are so sweet!

Hello, the "bent over spoon" is an old baby spoon designed that way. Nice suitcase full of jewelry. ❤❤❤

AWW, MADE ME SAD THAT THE FAMILY DIDN'T KEEP THE FAMILY RING & BABY SILVERWARE BUT I KNOW WHEN YOU'RE CLEANING OUT AN ESTATE YOU CAN'T KEEP EVERYTHING. GREAT FIND!

Finally! A girly mystery box! Love the jewelry.

Lots of austrian crystals. Big in the 50's and the 90's. Quite pricey in the 90's. Long strands were in style in the 90's. Double strands in the 50's.

We love how you ask Melissa to sift through the jewelry and then you kinda get a little pushy and start going through the stuff yourself.😄

I think that possibly jade disc had an Asian character etched on it. It seemed to reflect in the light.

*check under the cardboard inserts* in the jewelry store boxes. Sometime things get stuck/ stored in layers for security.

Sara Coventry was a line of costume jewelry that was sold at home parties kind of like a Tupperware party.
@teresakooser5695 2年前

So funny. Here honey you go thru it. But I can’t help myself I must open things and touch them. Lol

I love the suitcase. Those things are back in style. It's in good shape.
@jewelinthedesert 2年前

I think you need to start making 3 piles for your jewelry. The costume jewelry, the good stuff, and the stuff that puts a twinkle in Melissa’s eyes. It’s so apparent to us watching at home which items she secretly wants and sometimes we cringe inside when Alex misses the signs. 🙄😊

Costume jewelry all the way up to the 80s and 90s is selling really well right now. The good costume jewelry. Sarah Coventry is one of the ones to watch for when you go to a sale
