It might end up converted to flats. It would down South, anyhow. 1.5 mill gets you a three bed semi in much of London.
Late 19th or a bit earlier. I'd think Austrian or German.
That's breached not broached if it's a ship.
PS. Not that I'd sell it, obvs.
I can see your point on the dangles, given the back is better finished. Earring backs would be visible, not so the brooch back. If they were added...
Those do look sun purpled.
Thank you! :)
Oh yes. The best, imo. That and Afghan.
I think not Bow in that case, the glaze is too gloopy.
I suspect Persian turquoise with that vivid colour. Agreed it started as a brooch.
Hm. Bow is a thought. How translucent are those? Godden says Bow used underglazed blue pseudo Chinese marks. I dunno: it looks a tad chunky...

Gaiarts, I think.
You weren't robbed, it's worth that for being pretty. I'd think sixties.
