SHE'S no stranger to finding an epic deal or two in the charity shop. But even Francesca was left stunned by what she discovered in a jewellery box she'd picked up in her local for just a fiver. She took to TikTok to document herself going through the box, as she said: "I found a random jewellery box in the charity shop for £5.
"I had a little look inside and it's just full of different treasure, so I thought, how cool would that be if we had a proper look at it in a video?" Things got off to a rocky start with a wooden necklace Francesca said she'd "never wear", followed by a tarnished heart necklace and a rose bracelet. She then found a cute stone ring, which she really loved, as well as a bow brooch that was broken. She then picked up another necklace, attached to which was something that caught her eye.
"A ring?" she exclaimed. "I think I've just found a diamond ring! "It's got markings on it but I can't really see. "It's stamped inside - I'm going to have to take this to a jewellers.
"But have I just found a gold, diamond ring? Oh my God!" "OK, so if this is the real deal...
what a find!!" Francesca captioned her video. "We definitely need a update, good luck!" one person commented on the video. "I'm hoping it's the real deal! Will be taking it to a jeweller this week," Francesca replied.
"That would be really cool if it’s a real diamond ring!" another added. Ross Dutton has been a manager for Crisis's charity shops for four years and currently runs the charity's Finsb.
