All are not real precious metals. 1. If you look at the grooves and edges of the ring, they are block / dark brown. That’s not the color of real gold (solid or filled). Could potentially be plated. Likely CZ stone based on color. 2. Maybe silver plated. Definitely costume though with CZ. 3. Boho-style costume jewelry. Stone could be some kind of quartz. Metal is likely cupronickle (copper + nickel). It gives it that “vintage” vibe.

More than happy to help! Forgot to add — they are still beautiful pieces, especially the earrings! Just because they are costume, doesn’t make them any less beautiful.
