Jewelry inspiration

Found those photos of some jewelry found on the Titanic:

It is interesting to see jewelry could be found on a famous shipwreck.  They are pretty much all in good shape.  Due to where they were found, the price much be high.  There are a few pieces I would like to do, with my own twist, of course.  The first photo would be the harded to work on.  I don't have an exact idea on how it is done.  On the other hand, I would like be able to do something like that.  It is ornate.   There is also a ring with a star on it.  That, I would be able to do it.  I had made a few rings in the past.  There is also the second photo, with the three set stone that would be fun to do.  I also know how to do it.  It is just making and soldering the setting around the stones that would be a bit tricky for me.

I find it nice to see fine jewelry like that where I could do.  Not replicate them, would be too much boring.  Just put my spin and see where I could go with it.
