Antique Questions Forum / is it really emerald?
« on: June 09, 2010, 02:40:48 am »
A few years ago I was given a charm by my grandparents. i know that it is at least 46 years old now.
I have been told that it is a Gold Talon - carat unknown - holding an emerald. But this information i was told a while ago, and as i am only 16 now, i was very young at the time. and because it was a family friend telling me this i am slightly wary of their knowledge, and as i have grown up i have started to think that is it more like glass.
I was wondering if someone would be able to identify it for me. I have included an image, to help, but i understand that this probably will not be of much assistance as the quality of the picture is not brilliant.
any other details would be very much appreciated
