    Picked this up today and I was hoping someone could help with the marks. My WAG is Egyptian, Art Nouveau style but later 20th century? Is one of the marks a date code?

    It measures 3" across and 1-3/4' tall.

    Thanks for any help :)

    Oh for goodness sake, could I have been more wrong :confused:

    Thank you very much @Bakersgma

    So the pin date could be vintage 1900 Art Nouveau after all?

    Gorgeous, Marie, and the enamel still looks perfect.:)
    It has all the signs of a period piece, imo. Maybe that perfect condition made you doubt it?

    Yea, I see vintage enamel pieces once in a while that are chipped, so I was wondering.

    This past summer I found this one from a dealer who does not deal in jewelry, he said it was in a pile of stuff his father had around the house. Two in one year and both in wonderful shape, it has to be a record for me :)
