I found this interesting piece at a thriftstore. I don't see any markings on it, and I'm curious as to what the main stone and the faceted one might be. I don't know if it's a pendant or was it to be a pin of some sort, and any thoughts if this might be custom made? It's quite heavy as well.
Thanks so much!

looks to be azurite?

the faceted stone could be a London blue topaz, or just glass.

Thanks, I wasn't sure about it.

Could it be blue opal? I think Plat and 18k pendant as well but just a guess. Look closer on the back for markings. They can hide, for sure.

I thought, maybe opal, when I first saw it.... but it started to look more azurite the closer I looked

Georgia from Charlotte Sayers Antique Jewellery here. Looks like a Zircon and a mix of lapis and aventurine but tricky to tell!

Thanks, do you think it's an antique?

I've inspected it with a loupe and not able to find any visible markings at all. It's unique and I'm wondering custom made?

well, it's a pretty little thing but it may not even be gold.... a quick trip to any jeweler will clear that up fast!

I agree, hope to find a trust worthy one!

Lapis lazuli and aquamarine.
Does not appear antique, partly due to the complex construction of the top piece.

Lack of markings seems odd. I would think the maker of a custom piece would want to leave a makers mark of some type. Likewise if it were gold/silver, there should be something indicating k/f.

SWAG: Somewhat modern costume piece. Can't tell from a photo if stones are real or definite ID.

YMMV 😁
