<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 12079173, member: 36"]The top left and bottom left in the first picture are new. The light blue brooch at 9 o'clock looks like early to mid-50s. It was the hot color right before the Aurora Borealis craze hit. The blue and green at 3 o'clock has a V back and domed front...early 60s? I'd think the red and pink one that's domed is from the same era. Austrian??? Circle pins tend to be 60s somewhere. The other two look like 50s colors and construction. I bet they had matching twin pins at some point, but those are long gone. </p><p><br /></p><p>If it were me, I'd put as many fit on my jacket lapel and swan out of the door.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
