"It's your eleventh wedding anniversary and you're not quite sure what kind of gift to get? My name is Blake Kennedy and I'm with Kennedy Brothers Estate Services, and I'm here to see if I can't help you with that. There's an anniversary gift by the year and the traditional thing says, steel and the modern says fashion jewelry. Some people call it costume jewelry. That's what I'm going to call it. Don't be fooled by costume jewelry. It's not just some junk stuff your grandmother had. You want to make sure you look at those pieces and see if they're signed. Signed pieces are artists that took the time, as much time as if it was gold and diamonds to make these beautiful pieces. This is a beautiful Phoenix broach with beautiful stones in it and it's a signed piece on the back. So flip it over on a piece of costume jewelry and see if it's Miriam Haskel, a Trifari because that's quality pieces of fashion jewelry. So don't be afraid to go after that and think you're going cheap on that, because a good piece of costume jewelry is worth a lot of money. So, on that eleventh anniversary, get that piece of fashion jewelry that she could put on to make that jacket look great. My name is Blake Kennedy, happy eleventh anniversary."
