My Taxco Earrings I Dont Dare Wear

Here is a grip of SOME of my earring collection - I cant wear them cuz they are screwbacks and I always lose em when i wear em. Anyway, you should be able to pick out the THREE pairs of Antonio - two are are marked but the leaves ones aren't but the quality and design is so dead on it cant be any other designer. There are wanna be spratling flower earrings marked only Mexico - I have these is black hematite and purple amethysts. There is also a pair of Margot and a Martinez.

My Dots Bracelet & RING

I have two Dot Bracelets - One is the traditional and well known Los Ballesteros Dot bracelet. This bracelet comes in several different colors including blue (turquoise), Red (bakelite), Green (Bakeliet) and more recently I think I saw a green malachite but it wasnt very pretty. The other bracelet I got in Pasadena - Its only marked Taxco 980 but its so very Spratling - except every time I wear it, it reminds me of a domino. But is nicely done in a teak or mahogony wood.

I have RED DOTS RING - I have never seen one and I tried taking a pic but its really blurry - I posted it anyway and I'll try to get a better pic later.

More - Heres my Response to the Guy

Roger - I'm so glad to hear you know how to treat sterling. Clearly, I was wrong in assuming that you polished them even if they are super shiny and the pics do seem much darker...and aside from the high polish (that you didnt do) the clips are fine. Thanks much Tia

Sellers Response that He Polished

I DID NOTHING TO THEM I DON'T CLEAN VINTAGE MEX. ITEMS IF YOU ARE UN-HAPPY AND YOU THINK I DID CLEAN THEM PLS PLS PLS SEND THEM BACK FOR A FULL REFUND. I KNOW HOW TO TREAT SILVER!!!! ROGER////

Loved the email screaming - You would think sellers would be a bit more civil. Something like: Well, I didnt polish and maybe the pics were different OR How about this: Sorry you were unhappy, how about a refund?

Update On my Alleged Spratling Pieces

OK so my previous post said I scored a pair of SPRATLING fur clips on ebay. I just got them today and I swear they are fake. If that wasnt enough the idiot seller polished them to a high shine...Not being happy about that, I did send the seller an email asking them not to polish sterling items - Good Lord its called A PATINA - LEAVE IT ALONE! That, and its super bugs me that I get something different from the pics! You would think getting a fake would bug me more - but oddly enought it doesnt!! Quit polishing this shit - my god...
