    I'm getting into dating brooches. I inherited many from my late grandmother. I know to look at the claps for the pin and the length.. So many factors to take into account. These have a roll over pin and clasp... the stones appear to be glass. Good quality and I'm thinking 1950's or 60's?

    Could go either way. These would be called scatter pins and worn on a sweater or some such.

    One is a more perfect circle and 1" diameter. The other is slightly oval and 1 1/8" x 1"

    I would say 1950s/60s is an excellent guess.
