Hi Lex! Fyi - regarding the Russian church/ cathedral brooches - They are gorgeous! Please research carefully! I'm in the Midlands, where a similar one was bought pre-pandemic. I actually saw it in the shop and wanted to buy for my own collection, but the shop was closed and not local, so I was unable to return. From memory, think it was sold for a price in the high £100s, possibly in London. I think that brooch was St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow, which may have made it more recognisable and desirable and therefore, may explain the high price. I've never done any research on any others. With the politics of the day, it may be worth waiting a while before you chose to sell. Certainly, a local Auction house are withdrawing Russian items from sale, because after exposure at several sales, nobody is currently buying Russian items? Liz
Jeez, if you get 55 on that Pandora, I'm gutted, (happy for you, of course)I sold my black leather bracelet, identical silver charm and an angel wing charm on ebay for 20 pound last week 😭
