Does anyone know anything about the symbol on this ring
Comments (11)There is no reason a real jeweler can't tell you a gold content of the ring with a simple test. From this test you can narrow down the likely country of origin. Given that it has a 750 on it, it's likely European (18k in the US. A piece with a 750 quality mark would also be qualified to have a makers mark on the piece. I also don't think it's too ancient. I collect antique jewelry and most often see higher gold content from my european antique pieces, plus significantly better quality in the pieces made over 100 years ago. An older european piece might not say 750 on it...but again, a jeweler can tell you what the content is easily. Even my older pieces, which are rougher in construction than a piece made say in the 1880's are all made with more detail than that piece. Celtic pieces with designs as simple as that wouldn't have had the 750 mark. Even pieces from the early 1700's and down into the 1600's would have more done on the workmanship side than that piece. This does not mean it's not a nice piece of jewelry. It has a high gold content, and it's a decent piece, I just would be pretty shocked to find out it's ancient. I'm guessing (as guessed above) that it's some sort of lodge piece (which would explain the rustic design and masculine styling) from anywhere from the 50's on. Personally, I'd never count on a museaum to date my jewelry. I'd count on a historical jeweler, but if I walked into our local museaum (a very nice museaum) they'd ask to do a display of my collection, but I'd bet you a billion bucks they could never identify the pieces individually. You need a jewelry expert for that. And even a great shop can't tell you much about a piece if they don't understand the basics of jewelry design over the centuries. Let me guess value....ok not specifically, but I'd guess it's worth it's weight in gold :oP Not much else given the workmanship (again it's nice but not spectacular given it was probably a lodge piece) but it's a very good quality gold if the mark is right and worth whatever 18k gold is trading for by the ounce lately :)...See MoreFlexitec Anyone here know anything about it?
Comments (0)Yes I do have a modular more about that later. I'm looking to put Flexitec down in my kitchen and laundry room. I'm looking at a 20 yr floor not no cheap stuff. Anyone here used this stuff? How does it compare to the other floating vinyl flooring?...See MoreAnyone here know anything about cell phone data?
Comments (1)I'm going to say the answer is Yes, same data usage either way. If you want to be sure, call the carrier. Another thing to do is to ask them to turn off their data and maximize the use of Wifi connections on the trip and at home between now and the end of the billing cycle. (Wifi to public locations like a hotel, Starbucks, McD's, libraries, not to one of the other phones) Some carriers charge less for overages if you buy it in advance (temporarily up your monthly quota and then drop it after the billing period ends), others don't. You can ask about how that works when you call, if that concerns you....See MoreDoes anyone know anything about Bonsais?
Comments (4)You are right not to post this on a succulent thread. you actually need the forum on diagnosing diseases. Your plant is a tropical shrub or tree. Cant' tell what kind though I thought it might be a form of ficus. but you mentioned a cherry. The good news is the plant is healthy. Brown bits do happen but the damage is minimal and not fatal. . Anyway, the bitten part is not bitten actually. More like little spots that died off and the brown bits fell away. This little brown spots on leaves occur for possibly a few reasons. 1. Inconsistent watering. If the plant suffered a dry spell and then suddenly got watered, some portions of the leaves (and branches) die off. The flood of water 'explodes' the cells and kills them. This is why you need to water consistently but to be careful not to overwater. When you do that, the roots drown and the entire crown will go brown. Bonsais can get root bound depending age and how long since they've been repotted. So roots may not be able to absorb surface water or oxygen or may have drowned in too much water. Happens a lot with root bound plants. If it is root bound then its time to root trim and repot in fresh soil (something that should be done by seasoned gardeners). The clue is in the location of the browning. It almost always occurs at the tips of the leaves. Sun spots. A dew drop may have turned into a magnifier with the sun focusing on that one spot and killing off the cells. its like using a magnifying glass to start a fire. You can avoid this by watering only roots. If you need to spray the foliage to prevent spider mites and other sorts of indoor nasties, you need to put a fan nearby to circulate air and to evaporate the water on the leaves. 3. bacterial or virus. Watch for a spread - if that happens, it might be one or both. I suggest that if you have more questions, take this to the forum I mentioned....See MoreOnt_Gal
