I have some pieces from my mother's estate and am at a loss as to value and how to describe them. I know the second one is crystal. 

 

Could any one please help? Many thanks.

Vintage crystal/rhinestone brooches.

I was looking before Christmas to buy.   

 

Prices were only $18 - $25

I know Stawks is probably correct, but you could take them to a jewellers just to confirm that they are crystal, rather than anything expensive. They should be able to tell you easy enough with their gemstone tester.

Real Diamonds wont fog up when you breathe onto it like you when you fog a mirror.

If it stays foggy then it is a fake.

Also check the metal that it's set in if it's a cheap metal then it's also fake.
