[QUOTE="Eils14, post: 9565135, member: 14776"]Hello, I just wanted to pop on and share a jewellery success I had which was a direct result from seeing something here on this board! I was at a vintage fair at the end of last month (and then went on my hols which is why I haven't posted it until now) and I saw a lovely brooch and earring set. When I picked up the brooch and turned it over I noticed two things; 1) this brooch is extremely heavy and 2) I am sure I have seen this mark on the back recently somewhere on this forum and someone said it was worth something! I came back and did a search and found that [USER=29]@Ownedbybear[/USER] (thank you!) had mentioned the maker here in [URL='https://www.antiquers.com/threads/this-is-what-happens-when-its-too-hot-to-haggle.80468/#post-9539894']This is what happens when it's too hot to haggle | Antiques Board (antiquers.com)[/URL] and that I had therefore found a Schoffel matching brooch and earring set.
