Ruby Necklace from WW2
Ruby Necklace Question: I have a gold necklace with rubies in it. It was my husband’s grandmother’s.
Sweetheart Jewelry and Collectibles (Schiffer Book for Collectors With Value Guide)
Price: $25.21
We think it was acquired in WW2 while her husband was overseas and jewelers came out giving gifts of jewelry to the Allied soldiers.
What is the best way (or place) to find out the true origin of the piece or at least if it might really be from this era and location?
thanks
Answer: G’day Sarah and many thanks for your query.
I’m sorry but I have been researching this claim and cannot find anything confirming it. It’s a Mystery?
The thought of Jewelers giving away ruby necklaces seems extraordinary (why would they do this?) as anyone with any gold, silver, art treasures or gemstones usually Stashed them away to use in the event of personal tragedy in their war torn lives.
Sounds great though - doesn’t it. You might like to check eBay for similar items.
