The clasp is stamped ‘375’ for 9ct gold (the chain section also tests as 9ct yellow gold)

The earrings have screw fittings and were made by the collectable silversmith / jewellers JA&S (John Atkins & Sons). Each earring has vibrant guilloche enamelling in royal blue and pearlescent white; the white enamelling cleverly imitates pearls in the central section of each earring and on the stud part.

Each earring has a total drop (from the top of the stud part to the bottom earring tip) of 4.4cms and the earrings have a combined weight of 3.7g

The reverse of each earring is stamped with the lion passant (for Sterling silver), along with hallmarks showing that the earrings were made in Birmingham in 1910 by the silversmith / jewellers JA&S (John Atkins & Sons).

These antique earrings are 116 years old and are in good condition for their age. The blue enamelling is in lovely condition with no loss or damage. The white pearlescent enamel shows a little variation in surface finish in a couple of areas but this does not stand out when the earrings are worn. The ear fittings screw / unscrew as they should.

This lovely, good size, decorative, antique watch key dates from around 1820 - 1830. The watch key is gold cased and showcases gorgeous scrolling and foliate engraving detail. One side of the watch key is set with a foiled amethyst and the other side with a foiled citrine. The top bale turns around fully / independently of the key itself. This would be a lovely addition to any watch key collection but would also make a stunning and unique pendant.

The watch key measures 4.6cms length (including the bale) and it weighs 6.8g

As is usually the case with this type of item there are no hallmarks. The watch key tests as gold cased.

This antique watch key is around 200 years old and is in good condition for its age, showing just light signs of age / general wear. There are no chips to the amethyst or citrine, which show just very light superficial wear under magnification (nothing obvious to the naked eye). There is no wear to the gold casing other than at the tip of the ‘key’ part. I have no way of testing whether this still functions as a watch key, but I have no reason to believe it wouldn’t as the ‘key’ part retains its original shape. It’s possible that the foil backing to the amethyst and citrine has degraded in some areas as fragments of a different colour can be seen at the back of the stones.
