If it is a gold mount and
If it is a gold mount and marked 14K, and it is carved from Queens Conch shell, it would sell in the $275.00- $450.00 range. But none of this can be determined from an image, you really need to have the piece tested for gold content and carved portion examined to determine what the materila used is.

There are a lot of "if's" for pieces like this. If it is gold and marked 14K, and if the carving is Queens Conch shell and if the pearls are really pearls it could sell for as much as $450.00. But none of this is possible to determine from a n image , your really need to have the piece physically examined.
