I buy and resell vintage and antique jewelry, and sometimes I find myself keeping pieces I like. I'm getting quite a collection. Here are some of them.
These are some antique Buddha, Bodhisattva pieces that nobody at the auction wanted. I got them for 15 each. They're handmade on a brass base, but the gemstones are real. There's amber, coral mother of pearl, ruby, etc. Each gemstone has a meaning. The positions of the figures, hand placement, etc, all have some meaning attached.

This is an old Victorian watch fob and locket. The locket has a lock of hair in it, and two pictures. One is a guy who looks dead to me. This was called memento mori and was common at the time. The other picture is really blurry, but appears to be three naked ladies.

Here are some bugs. The first one is from the 30's the other is Victorian, probably from 1880's. It's silver,citrine, and amethyst.

This is my daughter's vintage pendant. She took it from me.

Anybody else collect anything?
