Agreed. I was going to mention those lavas if someone didn't beat me to it. If I were a seller I'd be ashamed of myself with all that undisclosed...
I'd prefer the cupboard, not that I have room for it.
I wouldn't be surprised. Sellers sure were though - they don't know cameo collectors! Y'all are rabid. I go right to coral on this one too....
I'd have figured them for garnets, or a mix. With Czech jewelers you never knew.

And show us the brooch. Btw - if all else fails, put a stick pin clutch on the end of that hairpin and off she goes.
And thus why everyone with any sense was fond of Lady Elaine. As a kid I missed a lot of the subtext (didn't know Friday the 13th was a Thing,...
If they could turn a buck (or a few quid), you can bet they did.
I don't think PBS went onto the air until the late 60s, so... Romper Room? Captain Kangaroo? Bob Keeshan went all the way back into black and white.
