[QUOTE="Jeanny, post: 1800833, member: 12849"]Hi Any Juwelry I now find more and more information about this design. I even found another brooch made in the same period. Around 1900, ORESTO was known for high-quality gilding. This brooch was indeed made somewhere between 1920 and 1939 With the arrival of the Second World War (1939-1945), the metals became very scarce in Germany, because they had to be handed in for making weapons. They then switched to silver (I was told) You were completely right about your assessment. [IMG]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/24/7c/56/247c5670f7b8cdd44a3a8c53fdd8b70f.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
