Maybe Mabe??

Isn’t this gorgeous? It’s one of a set of earrings my grandma used to wear. 🩷

I can’t make out this stamp! I think I see an FAS, maybe? Help me if you can. It’s a bangle. It may have diamonds on it? There’s no tarnish on it. Maybe it’s just costume?

I thought this was a basic black bead necklace , but then I had a feeling that maybe it was something else. So I dug it out of the box , checked the clasp which says 14 K CU, and realized it’s probably not basic plastic beads since the clasp is gold. I don’t know what the CU means. And could these be onyx? They’re somewhat heavy and stay cool in my hand. Any help appreciated.

What stone is this?

Does anyone know what stone this is? Or have a guess what it might be? It’s 10 K gold, it was left to me by my grandmother. I don’t know it’s history. It’s never been evaluated or tested . Thanks!!

What the heck are these dark red spots on my cantaloupe? They were not there when I bought it 2 days ago. They’re soft like bruises, as if the flesh is exposed just under the surface of the wound, for lack of a better word. Is it ok to just cut this off and eat it? It was unripe when I bought it , it was hard and had no melon scent. It’s been sitting on the kitchen countertop since Sunday to ripen.

Another piece from Grammie that I know very little about. My exquisite grandmother had quite a collection of jewelry, many pieces she wore regularly and I am familiar with the origin and history of such pieces. But then there’s some that she bought from estate sales or acquaintances, such as this necklace (doesn’t it look like a cat?), which I know nothing about, other than that the 2 ‘ears’ are opals. What’s that big stone?

So I’m trying to gather any information about this necklace that was passed on to me by my grandmother. Like, is this the type of piece I should insure? Thanks in advance for any help.

Trying to find out what this necklace is. The beads are so blue, the clasp is 14 K gold and there’s a flower on it. These came from my grandmother though I can’t recall ever having seen her
Wear it.

These are ivory in color, not perfect spheres, can’t tell if the clasp is real gold as I can’t find any marking on it(but it’s tiny!). I do think they’re beautiful and enjoy wearing them, they were my grandmother’s. Are they freshwater?
