Your dad speaks Arabic? That’s so cool

[jay, rip]

but seriously i’m set to inherit a lot of ivory and I don’t know what to do w it,? because one of the things is this like legit chunk of ivory that’s at least 3 ounces that’s set in a pendant (but it’s too heavy to actually go on a chain) and it’s been in my family for a long time and it’s gonna be mine soon but like, is it ethical? is it legal? i don’t have paperwork for it bc it was brought from overseas but it was definitely acquired before 1900 so it’s legal but it doesn’t have paperwork

[jay, rip]

that’s from my dad’s side tho

notable things i’m getting from my moms side include a diamond cocktail ring from my Teta, and a broach from my mom’s dad

[jay, rip]

i want to weigh all of my stuff and see how much i could sell it for

[jay, rip]

google says an ounce of gold is worth $1400 nowadays

[jay, rip]

but a lot of my stuff is set in good, not actually pure gold. i have this opal that’s set in gold but idk how much the actual opal is worth

[jay, rip]

i also don’t want to take a lot of this stuff to a jeweler and have them give me prices because they would definitely be able to tell that i have no clue what any of this stuff is worth and possibly could be like “yo that emerald is fake” and give me $50 for it when it’s actually worth $5000

[jay, rip]

my sister suggested taking all the prayer beads to this crystal shop downtown, because they don’t buy things from you so they’d be honest about what the worth on the stuff is

let me amend this: i speak, read, and write basic Arabic, i don’t know a lot of the intricate and specific terminology of things, which is why i can’t translate the names of certain things like gemstones and spices
