    Rusty, I look forward to your weekly videos because you are a positive, upbeat person. Keep it up.

    The modern statement rectangle screw back earrings are Mid Century Copper Enamel Earrings made by artists in the 1960's. Some Copper enamel jewelry can sell for much more than you might think.

    That color changing stone looks like Alexandrite. It was popular in the 1800s before they realized it was so rare.

    Just happened across your videos and find them helpful to learn about jewelry. Have been sorting through my 90-year old mother's things left to me. Thanks for the information you pass on to others wanting to educate themselves!

    The "bracelet" at 21:00 looks more like an anklet

    Those square enamel screwback earrings look like they're from the 1950's or 60's.The pendant with the coral color center is glass, not resin. I have an old brooch with a blue one exactly like it!

    Ps. I repair nicer brooches and buy stones from Mr. Stones if I need a certain color/size or shape. I have saved some beautiful jewelry from the craft pile. Keep going cousin...😊

    Rusty, after your presentation I am much more educated, and I see better when going to the flea market. I can spot what is valuable, and what is not. You are a real jewel!

    Green glass with gold wire earrings could be sea glass. At my aquarium in Chicago in their gift shop I bought sea glass square earrings in silver about 15 years ago.

    Hi Rusty! Just a thought, you might want to start making it clear than "citrine" in jewelry like this is really just citrine-colored, like when we say gold toned, not actually gold. And even more than that it's good to know and make clear that even "real" citrine in most jewelry (and loose crystal pieces like at metaphysical shops) is actually still not real citrine, it is heat-treated amethyst. Real natural citrine has a lighter, smokier color and is actually quite expensive. So it should be extra obvious when it's just "citrine"-colored rhinestone. Most people don't even know what real citrine looks like. But it definitely does not look at all like those big rhinestones in that one big pendant!

    I love the garnet earrings. Do you sell on Etsy?

  • @mg725

    That red mottled stone on the necklace around 10:45 looks like Peking glass maybe...

  • @Eclectista

    Rusty, thank you for another educational video. That shape is called Marquise (Mar-KEYS) oval with points at each end.

  • @sabrinaanthony7330
    @sabrinaanthony7330 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Of course it could also be neodymium glass, which is also called alexandrite glass, which I believe is an even cheaper material than lab created alexandrite.

    Thank you for telling me about the policy with ebay on Ivory! I didn't know that! I did find out I could sell it if it was made before the ban on Ivory so I had thought about listing it now I know I can't. I have the tulips screw backs also mine are a little different though. But I can spot true Ivory by feeling it. It has a weight and feel unlike any other material used in jewelry! And thank you for the info on the texture of brooch backs the Swirls as you call it you'd mentioned in a older video it possibly being French if it has those swirls. I now look for those swirls ( I've only found one with those swirls though. You didn't mention French today though. I thank you I've learned a good bit from watching your videos 😊

    Hey Rusty I have a couple of old pieces with a purple stone that looks just like on the bracelet. They register a bit above a Amethyst, and are large light purple and almost fake looking. Thanks for your channel

    The "painted" flower earrings early in the show should be described as enameled.

    That pink stone at 11:00 looks like it might be rhodochrosite. Check it out and let us know :)

  • @sabrinaanthony7330
    @sabrinaanthony7330 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The purple color change stone could still be lab created alexandrite if it changes from purple to blue in different light. The lab created stones are nowhere near as expensive as the natural ones.

    That piece looks like topaz, although the foil suggests maybe Baltic Amber.

    The large citrine piece at 13:00 looks like art nouveau. The flower design is what stands out. Very interesting piece.

    • @mg725
      @mg725 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      the flower design looks more like William Morris to me than art nouveau, which is usually a bit more delicate too and doesn't usually feature big chunky ol' faux stones like that. and those are definitely not citrines. natural citrine doesn't even look that color, when "citrine" looks like that it is 100% guaranteed heat-treated amethyst. natural citrine is a lot lighter and hazier and is very expensive.

  • @Eclectista

    That shape is not a harp, it's a lyre shape (liar)

  • @user-zg5sr2zh7j

    One more comment I have wanted to make. Please stop saying that decorations or markings on the back of brooches and other jewelry indicates that it is cheap jewelry. It is Simply NOT True. Sometimes it is a nice way to finish it off nicely and sometimes it is the Makers Signature. Example 1928 Jewelry Company finishes the backs of their jewelry with a distinctive Swirl, it is their signature or their mark. I rarely run across jewelry with a finished back that is cheap, especially with Vintage Jewelry. A lot of Modern Fashion Jewelry is more likely to be cheaply made, not so with Vintage Jewelry. Yes, there are exceptions but not the rule.

    • @mg725
      @mg725 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I'm going to have to offer a bit of a counterpoint. First of all, he mainly said that it usually is not an older piece if it has those embellished backs and especially in the case of 1928 jewelry it's very true. And 1928 jewelry is also pretty cheap, not sure why you're quibbling so much with that. I have MANY times run across a brooch with a back like that and it was indeed pretty cheap. A lot of "vintage" jewelry that has backs like that is not really true vintage, and most 1928 jewelry is not really vintage because the company was founded late, in like 1968 or something, which means they have like 10-15 years worth of true vintage and the rest is what I call "semi-vintage". Rusty isn't saying anything that's not true, you're being a bit too absolute and getting a little carried away with the defense. He's right, and it actually really is enough of a rule to be a loose rule.
