Featured Help on a possibly carved jade pin

hi e1,
Happy Monday, NOT!! Lol. Was wondering if anyone could help with this pin. The center appears to be Jade and not glass. The carving and construction or style does not look Asian to me. Unknown metal content but I’m positive it’s likely plated or lesser Just wondering about style, age, origin, and anything else. The pin on the back is after the turn of the century, correct me if I am wrong

any help is very much appreciated

thank you!!

PS. I bought the lot cause I think I got a D&E but I am still researching that one. (Last pics)

 

Do you have a gem tester?

Can you show the whole front, not just the close up?

 

It is costume, and looks like it could be Czech. It is very likely the jade is glass. The Bohemians/Czechs were very good at making glass imitations or stones.

 

I agree. Nice Bohemian glass.

 

Thirded. Nice molded glass. Jade that color would NOT be in a costume setting. It would be in decent-karat gold. The second one does appear to be D&E. It has their navettes and the globby soldering job.

 

I am not a joolie but you take great photos.

 

Really on the photos? It’s the iPhone 11 Pro. Ok, I would have never thought it was Czech glass. My presidium went missing in my move and I refuse to buy another but I think it’s time.

thank you e1 for all of the help!!!

 

Hi! The first photo is the whole front. Do you see it now? Thank you

 

Agreed on D&E too, that's a known one I think.

 

Yay! I’m getting better at spotting D&E. Ty

 

Yep, I see it now

 

You do know that as soon as you buy a new one the old one will turn up, right

 

Precisely why I can’t let myself but... it’s been almost 3 years come July. I think I need to give up the
