    Hi! I’ve got this brooch, it looks like a dogwood blossom to me, but I have no idea what all the little engraved things are? Has anybody seen these before? It’s hard to get good pics of them, you might have to zoom in.
    Thanks!

    Tanya, please post a photograph of the back. That's where much of the information lies.

    I must be doing something wrong when uploading images for a post, it’s always the last one that gets left off.

    Anyway, I can’t find any signatures, but there is one raised dot in the upper right quadrant…

    The hinge and clasp look 1930s to me, could be a bit later.

    The metal is odd, too. The front polishes like silver, but not the back.
