Mixed Jewelry Lot Appraisal

2.5 Lbs. Grandmas Vintage Jewelry Lot

This lot, weighing 2.5 lbs, includes a diverse collection of vintage jewelry, encompassing necklaces, pendants, bracelets, and a sweater clip. The assortment features various materials such as gold-tone metals, silver-tone metals, beads (including possibly faux pearls and colored glass or plastic), and possibly some natural stones or costume gems. Specific items visible include several gold-tone necklaces, some with prominent pendants like a floral design, a geometric patterned one (possibly MCM style as mentioned in the title), and clear resin-like pieces. Bracelets range from expandable bangle styles to beaded and chain designs. The condition appears to be mixed, as expected with a bulk vintage lot; some pieces show signs of wear, potential tarnishing on metals, and possibly missing stones or minor damage consistent with age and previous use. However, no severe breakage or irreparable damage is immediately apparent from the provided images. The craftsmanship varies across the pieces, indicative of mass-produced costume jewelry, but some items exhibit more intricate detailing. The overall aesthetic points to a Mid-Century Modern (MCM) period influence for some pendants, alongside other vintage styles from the mid-to-late 20th century. Quality indicators suggest these are primarily costume jewelry rather than fine jewelry. This lot is ideal for collectors or resellers interested in vintage costume jewelry for various uses, including repair, repurposing, or resale.
