<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mekanah18, post: 4452822, member: 13177&quot;]I&#039;m not sure what to think of this brooch.&nbsp; The center stone is a lighter bright red and appears to be glass.&nbsp; The smaller stones surrounding could be garnet.&nbsp; All stones are set with prongs.&nbsp; The smaller &#039;garnet&#039; stones appear to be hand cut possibly because they are not all uniform in their surface cuts and appear to differ slightly.&nbsp; The clasp is a trombone safety and has &#039;czecho slovakia&#039; stamped on it in such tiny letters it&#039;s impossible to photograph.&nbsp; It measures 2&quot; l by 1/2&quot;h. I think it may be gold filled or gold over some other kind of metal.&nbsp; Has anyone seen anything like this? Is this a 1930&#039;s ish bohemian garnet that might have had a repair done with the center stone? or could the center stone have lost its foil backing changing its color?[ATTACH=full]383435[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]383436[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]383437[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]383438[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]383439[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
