Excellent display quality for your collection or home decor. Beautiful large piece of golden-orange cluster citrine mounted on a custom metal stand. From the collection of a 30-year collector. Purchased at the Bancroft Rockhound Gemboree. Its appearance immediately draws attention. The citrine formed flawlessly, exhibiting a rich orange hue that sparkles through its intact, crystallized points. This interplay results in a lustrous quality, shining like golden flares. The points vary in size.

Raw/natural Herkimer diamond ring (size 8) by Erica Weiner.

Herkimer Diamonds are not diamonds at all, but small double-terminated quartz crystals named for Herkimer County, New York, where they are found. Double-terminated crystals of quartz are fairly rare, and these pieces are quite collectable. The crystals formed in small hollows in the Little Falls Dolostone, a formation some 500 million years old.

The Herkimer Diamond Solitaire is a playful take on the idea of a Diamond Solitaire Ring. Made from square-stock silver, with a simple cage-setting it has a minimal, industrial chic. Made in New York City.

A manual winding watch featuring a mechanical movement, 17 jewels. The dial commemorates Yuri Gagarin and the first manned space flight on April 12, 1961. 

The Pobeda brand emerged in 1946 and was produced by various Soviet watch factories, including the First Moscow Watch Factory (1MWF).  The Sturmanskie watch used a movement based on the Pobeda design and was produced under the Pobeda name for a period. The First Moscow Watch Factory, the producer of this specific watch model, eventually became known as the Poljot (Russian for &#34;Flight&#34;) watch brand. Yuri Gagarin&#39;s monumental journey into space in 1961 thrust Soviet watchmaking into the global spotlight. Aboard the Vostok 1, Gagarin wore the Sturmanskie (type 2 - improvement on the type I). This historic timepiece, with its manual-wind mechanical movement and luminescent hands, became an icon of horological achievement.

From the blog &#34;Dumarko&#34; title &#34;Soviet Watches: A Timeless Legacy&#34;:
&#34;Soviet watches, an enduring symbol of the USSR&#39;s technological prowess, continue to fascinate collectors and enthusiasts around the globe. These timepieces, produced within a planned economy, were designed with precision, reliability, and functionality at their core. Born out of necessity during the early days of the Soviet Union, the watch industry underwent rapid development, ultimately leading to the creation of legendary brands such as Pobeda, Raketa, Poljot, Vostok, and Slava. Each brand boasts its unique story and significance, reflecting not only the advancement of watchmaking technology but also the sociopolitical climate of the era. Soviet watches were worn by soldiers, astronauts, and everyday citizens alike, serving as reliable companions during times of peace and adversity. The watch industry experienced a significant boost during the Space Race, as timekeeping became an essential aspect of manned space missions. The cosmonauts&#39; timepieces, now icons of horological history, exemplify the symbiotic relationship between Soviet watch manufacturers and the nation&#39;s ambitious space program. Despite the challenges and upheaval following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the allure and craftsmanship of Soviet watches persist. &#34;

WORKING - Vintage Soviet Pobeda/Poljot Sturmanskie Yuri Gagarin Mechanical Watch

Beautiful vintage cluster cocktail ring with 18KT H.G.E. (heavy gold electroplate) and marquise cut stones (stones unknown) and white opal petals with small stone accents (stones unknown). Size 7.

HGE on gold jewelry is a hallmark and short form for ‘Heavy Gold Electroplate’, which is also mentioned as ‘H.G.E’ sometimes. This hallmark defines that the jewelry piece is made of a base metal like brass or copper, and then coated with a thick layer of gold, using the electroplating method. ‘Heavy’ in the name talks about a thicker-than-usual gold layer compared to the usual electroplating pieces. The thicker plating allows the piece to be more resistant to tears and wear compared to standard plating.  Your HGE jewelry will have the same shine and shade as solid gold.

Rarity: considered relatively rare vintage speakers, often described as a collector&#39;s item. While not impossible to find, they are vintage and not widely available on the general market. They appear occasionally on vintage audio marketplaces and in online enthusiast groups. 

last couple photos are ads for the speakers from the 70s.

In the 1970s, Tannoy speakers were manufactured in two main locations as the company transitioned its operations: 
West Norwood, London (Early to Mid-1970s): Until 1976, manufacturing was based at their Canterbury Grove premises in West Norwood.
Coatbridge, Scotland (From 1976): In 1976, Tannoy relocated its production operations to a new factory in Coatbridge, Scotland, which remained their manufacturing base for decades. 
Therefore, speakers produced in the first half of the 1970s (such as the early HPD series) were made in London, while those from 1976 onwards were made in Scotland.
