Lets chat about good bargains we got for pennies

I bought a few JJ items this summer for practically nothing..All of the pieces are solid silver set with marcasite and some are vermeil

I got a beautiful gilt cross that looks Byzantine and is set with round marcasite ate each point ot the cross..It is huge it looks like a Bishop's pectoral cross...My friend borrowed it for her ST Nick to wear when he visited her ccd classes..He looked so real she said, and people were dazzled by the cross

It is solid silver ,so it is heav,y and plated in 24 kt gold..I think I only paid 10 or 15 bucks for it..No one seemed to want it..The silver in it is worth more than that..It is a very elegant piece..JJ always had the best designs and workmanship..This is a older piece, made in Thailand
