      I'm sad that I'm just seeing your video now but glad that they can still be seen this long after you posted it. Anyway, I have a comment for you on the large brownish ring you showed which you said may be a costume piece. I hope you are getting pieces like that checked out and or appraised. That ring looks like Amber. The ring itself maybe .925 silver. People that aren't familiar with Amber may not know what it is. The majority comes from Russia. In essence, it's tree sap that petrifies and its more valuable if there are tiny bugs or tree/leaf particles in each piece. If you ever get some free time, look up The Amber Room. You can Google it. The entire Room was cut down, boxed and stolen by the Nazi's. It has never been recovered. You can see a replica of the room thats been restored. Its so beautiful!

You can even sell lots of non-working watches as steampunk lots. Check out estate jewelry lots on eBay, I think you’ll be surprised at the prices they go for. Also make sure to check the earring backs, you may find silver or gold ones. Gold and silver sell well and Blue Bus Dave can probably point you to a buyer in the area.

      No.
      925 Is the Sterling silver mark..
      These rings have “925” stamped on them, meaning that they are not made of solid gold. 925 is a standard sign used to mark sterling silver, and the meaning of the stamp is that the silver content in the piece is 92.5% (i.e., the remaining 7.5% is comprised of other elements)

      @@Miladyluvs No sterling is the standard stamp for sterling. It is a British standard it means that it is 92.5% silver and the rest copper. 925 means it is 92.5 % silver and the rest any other metal. It can only be sterling if it is copper. It is called sterling as a pond of it in weight was worth £1 (one pound sterling) in our currency.

      I had several pieces marked 925, took to reputable jeweler, said they were not sterling but an alloy.

      Nope 925 is silver that is 92.5% pure and mixed with any other metal. Sterling can only be mixed with copper or it isn't sterling even though the purity is the same. This is because it's the British standard for silver (why it's called pound sterling) and one pound in weight was worth one pound in currency when the standard was adopted.

    Nice haul Renee, some really pretty pieces. I agree with everyone who says not to throw anything away as there are so many crafters who would love some of that stuff. The very last piece you pulled out of the box looked like it might be hand painted flowers, very pretty.

    Take all the jewelry and take it to BlueBusDave and trade it for paper items. Use your loupe to look over possible gold or silver and dont make mistakes in identifying such as you know who did at the flea market lol.

    What a fun find! Hours of fund just looking through it all. Don't throw any of it away. As other have noted, it can be sold. I actually use broken pieces of jewelry in my mixed media art. I find much at thrift stores and friends will also give me their "junk". It never looks the same after I get done with it! I even use the clock works from inside the watches so those can be gutted and the gears sold.

      I used to live in No. Syracuse and my mom worked at Switz’s. As a teen in the 60s I used to love to go downtown to shop and see a movie. Those days are just a memory now. Here in Grand Rapids, which is an exciting city, people go downtown to eat, drink or hit our museums. Not many places to shop-at least none I can afford. I shop like Renee.

    925 denotes sterling silver on the ring you held up

    • @stuartstone6359
      @stuartstone6359 4 года назад

      No it would mean the silver is 92.5% silver and the rest of a different metal or metals sterling can only be mixed with copper, 925 does not mean it is sterling as it isn't a garuntee of the quality of the metals like something that is marked as sterling.
