Identifying pin?

Hello,

I was wondering if this is a sash pin? Or just a regular old metal brooch?


Has a C - Clasp.


Any help would be appreciated!
Warm Regard!

 

Hi,
What size is it. 3" or 9" or ???

Looks to be pressed metal imitating 19th C Dutch works that imitated earlier figural 'rustics at play' jewellery and small objects.

 

It's small, only measures 2 1/2" (inches) long

 

I don't see any signs of age, could have been made last week, but really no way to tell for sure.

 

It has a tube hinge and C clasp with an older looking pin. 1920s or 30s at the latest.

 

Found several silver Dutch tavern scene brooches. Most of them had newer clasp; however, did find one on rubylane with a tube hinge like this one. Really look the brooch over very carefully within the design for markings.

This one is probably depicting Rembrandt's "Night Watch"

I'll def. look it over with a loop. I have not had the chance! Purchased it yesterday with a couple other pieces in a little lot. I'll def report back as soon as I check it out a bit closer!
