Picture Perfect ~ Treasure ~

All that glitters can be old gold and someones treasure, but alas not mine.

Original crop below of my photo.   

 

 

The photo above and below is a crop from a photo taken last year at a show where the vendor sold estate jewellery from a stall.  This photo was taken showing some of the jewellery on offer and by the way it was safely locked under glass.

I was privileged to be given permission to take the photos by the lady at the stall.

The highlighted treasure below sitting next to some very fine pieces of estate jewellery is a Victorian Gold Chain and Pendent. I thought it was truly beautiful and an exceptionally nice piece. However the price-tag was also very befitting this beautiful treasure and my only keep sake of the necklace is this photo.

Enjoy!

  2. That is beautiful!!! Would have looked great around your neck wearing that red dress. But you would have had to hire a body guard. I guess the necklace fetched thousands. Have a great week end. Our spring can't be to far away. Hugs.

  17. Very nice display and an excellent photograph.
    However-----
    I thought the one without the frame, larger, looked brighter than one in the frame, smaller.
    So --- I measured it with a Densitometer, Colour Meter.
    I used the highlight on the right hand centre pearl and expected higher reading because the picture is smaller. The lower picture is brighter, more density, than the top
    Conclusion? The eye gets confused with the frame.
    My readings Top R.99.1 Green.99.2 Blue. 98.6
    Bottom R.99.6 Green.99.6 Blue. 99.6
