Looks like a maker's mark on the first ring, but can't read it. Gold is crazy right now. Check for K's, i.e. 10K, 14K.

Actor/Garry worked in the jewelry business. If you send him a PM, or if he sees this, he can probably help you.

First ring could be gold...photo is poor though. Can't say much about the second ring other than it's not gold. Last two rings are almost assuredly gold. The fobs look like they are gold-filled and the necklace at the end could have value as it appears to be victorian in a style called taille de esperance (though I believe this necklace is newer and "trying" to be victorian)

Difficult to say for sure from these photos but I'm fairly confident as i deal in quite a bit of jewelry.

Just because a piece isn't marked doesn't mean it's not gold. I always test to be sure...acid test is reliable and cheap.

Forgot to mention that old watch fobs and albert chains do have value...gold-filled has a good amount of gold in it. Way more than plated. Some fobs and chains are gold...always test.
