    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    getting old is OK.....getting sick or hurt is what sucks !!!! :playful::playful::playful:

    Yes...lots of stones , but don't rely on them for value as they are small...not rare...or gem quality...and were used for the BLING effect !!!
    Better than glass , though !!

    The rose cut diamonds are next to the enameled strips.;) At least they look rose cut.

    rose cut? The smaller diamond strips on the sides near the enameling is what i meant. the report said the thorax collet-set with and old cut diamond , with plain reeded abdomen between two stripes of rose diamonds.

    Very pretty brooch!
    I'd say Edwardian era, around 1910s:cyclops:
    The mark is puzzling, but I'm sure it is high carat gold.
    The price estimate seems really high for a non signed tiny piece... on Ebay, a sold price should be 300/380$ (don't trust the ASKED prices for valuation!;):facepalm:)
