Selling an assortment of mostly antique, and a few vintage fine jewelry pieces. More new listings each week from my last inventory trip to Europe so please feel free to follow here or on Insta!

ABOUT:
A personal collection release but this one is from "Grandma Mouse" (my mom). She purchased these on a trip with my dad in their retirement to Massachusetts. She bought them at a little antique jewelry store but has found since that she doesn't wear them much so they are looking for a new home. My sweet mom actually started an online business on eBay before I did, she specializes in costume jewelry, bakelite, gold fill lockets, fobs and chains, etc. (Shameless plug - feel free to check her out on eBay - Linda's Treasures of the Past" : ). She thought these would be more suited to my clientele so I am selling them for her through my shop.

The figural hands each hold a little ball - antique components from who knows what, with later ear wires added. The hand portions are gold cased and test at 10k, hollow inside and connected by a seam as two parts. The ear wires that are a later addition are gold filled. Solid gold ear wires can easily be found if the buyer decides to switch them out. They could also be added to a pair of gold studs as the loop at the top could be run through a stud post. There are little rubber stoppers at the back but those could also be removed and worn without as the ear wires are large enough to hold them on the ear.

Antique box not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos, especially with the zoomed images that I am required to present for detail.

SIZE & MEASUREMENTS:
Weight 1.5g combined as they are hollow inside.
The gold hands measure about 17x7mm and are "puffy heart" style where they are sort of 3D. Top of ear wire to bottom of dangle is 27mm.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
There is discoloration to the GF ear wires so some deterioration to the metal there but the hands are nice and shiny, a true yellow gold in 10k with lovely coloring and no dings or dents. There is discoloration at the seams where the two components were soldered together in their fabrication.

Please also note that I take some photos / videos in the sunshine because it captures the lovely color and sparkle, but it also highlights any surface wear, scratches, abrasions, buildup or inclusions that can catch the light, making these things appear worse than they would with normal day to day wear. : ) Hopefully the pics in all lightning conditions help as they serve as part of the description.

Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )

SOCIAL:
Please feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews! And check out my website www.MousesHouseAntiques.com as I can add more pics there so you can get extra looks : )

All items hand picked by me, one at a time from all over the world. All listings individually written by me, and not AI, after studying each piece to discuss its beauties and its ; ) eccentricities (which I am picky to point out).

Many of my listings include group shots – I find the comparisons between pieces help show scale, diamond hues, etc. All items in group shots are inventory, but refer to the website to see what items have sold out and to watch for new listings from the grouping to appear on the home page.
