My grandmother recently died but my grandfather is still alive and is now in a senior apartment community. We would like to sell what we can to help pay for his rent there, and I plan to keep a few pieces to pass down in our family in remembrance.
I am betting that these pieces aren't worth much, but even if I can get $10 for some things, that would help. I don't know anything about jewelry.
I have photographed everything. Some of the photos need to be re-done because they don't show up as vibrantly as they should, but hopefully the photos will help figure out what I have exactly and perhaps how much I could get.
I know some things are probably not even worth $1. If anything looks familiar to anyone or if anyone knows any values, that would be very helpful. I don't want to accidentally sell something for really low that could be worth $50 or something.
Thank you! I searched for vintage jewelry forums and this is the first one on Google that came up. We do plan to take all of this to a jeweler for a free appraisal, but I don't think they will be too thorough with the amount I have. THANK YOU!
Here is a link to my flickr photo set that shows the jewelry, there are 699 photos: https://www.flickr.com/photos/redthreaddiy/sets/72157653250804528
