Attempting to list my Mom's QVC fashion jewelry, but having a hard time finding similar items to know how to describe it.
I have checked through 1000's of listings with very little luck.

Unfortunately without the QVC item number you can't bring up their old info on their site and I don't know any other sites that have listings of them.
If you know the QVC brand name it helps to narrow down the search on ebay, otherwise it is a lot of searching and it's difficult to find a lot of info. Been there, done that and it's a real time suck.
Do you have any of her old records/paperwork? If so you might want to look thru them for the packing invoices which will have the item numbers on them. Or if you have access to her old QVC account you can check the purchase records. I just looked and mine go back to 2004.

Denise - Melania Trump used to have a QVC jewelry line up until a few years ago - maybe you can find it searching that way.

I can look up the signed, like the Joan Rivers, but there still are 1000's of those listings.
My ex-brother gave me the invoices of some of her real gold stuff that he stole from her and pawned. But the fashion stuff invoices are gone.
I did try calling QVC for past invoices but got nowhere, since I coudln't get access to her account. Most of the stuff was purchased in 2001 and 2002.

Denise, they currently have about 200 jewelry brands that they sell and going back to 2001 there are probably another 100 brands they no longer carry.
Most of the stuff you will just have to list without the brand name as those usually didn't get stamped on most of the brands.

Can't download the third pic. First pic has possible jade bracelet and pendant. How do I know that it is real jade?
And are the other things enhancers or pendants? Can't find them.
Second pic has 3 Veronese necklaces.
Sorry for bad pics.

Denise do you have any closeups of the hallmarks?

The Veronese have the scroll V mark.
The pendants or whatever don't have marks. The Jade (?) pendant and bracelet have China, 14K and a flower in a square. Can't get a close-up with my camera....will try again.

You will need hallmark pics when you list them as it does help identify the item. But it also protects you as the seller when you list something for example at 14K and the buyer claims it is marked less then that. You are screwed if you don't have a pic of it.

The biggest pendant on the left side makes me think of Joan Rivers egg pendants. Did you use a magnifying glass and look inside of the loop for a hallmark?

Given the high price of gold, if you can't identify the makers you might consider selling them by weight. You would probably make more that way then trying to sell them individually.

Thanks-I haven't listed any 14K yet. Still messing with the cheaper stuff. The last pic is of the Jade (?) bracelet.
I even bought a loupe on eBay and the pendants don't have anything inside.

I was considering taking them to Treasure Hunt, but wanted to make comparisons first.

Carolyn Pollack is a very distinct hallmark Denise, I know her stuff pretty well and have sold a lot of it. This is the one she uses on the Relios line: And her regular stuff has her initials like the ones on the bottom of this ad: Plus her stuff is all made in the US, up in Albuquerque in fact and is all southwest/western themed.

So anything signed has to have a pic of that? Like cheap Joan Rivers stuff?

If you want to sell it by brand you really need a hallmark pic.
Does your camera have a macro setting? It usually is a symbol of a flower, and it lets you get closeup shots like that.

My camera seems to automatically shoot up close, but as you can see, it isn't very good. Will look again.
Thanks for the info, O wise one.
