Final (3rd) price list of jewellery, circa 1976 & 1996. =>10 photos

 In this final 3-essay of price lists, I've included some prices of jewellery-related hammers, bench-grinders and hammers. 

 The name "Eaton" is not a fictitious name, as the name was that of the original owner of "Timothy Eaton". This Canada-wide company closed down only a few years ago.


  Cubic Zirconia gemstones were the 'best deal in jewellery'.



 It's interesting to read the 'promotional advertising' from those earlier days. BTW, as this was a Canadian jewellery company, our spelling is slightly different from that in America.


  Many of those designs are not seen too often; there was a heavy emphasis on engraving. For example, in #12 'set of rings'.


  Here are the various shapes of hammers that were used in Canada 30 years ago.
 
 I still have this bench grinder of number #6, being shown. I keep it to 'grind and shape' my gravers.
 
 Here are some 'costume jewellery' pieces that even today can be created in gold.


This engagement ring is named a "Flat Top" setting.
