    These are 3 Swedish brooches, I have done some research already. I’m just looking for confirmation and dating, if possible.

    1. Leaf
    Gertrude Engel for Anton Michelsen

    2. Penannular Cloak brooch by Sven Danielson.

    3. Least sure of by
    Ge-KÃ¥ Smycken ?

    Nice pieces! Your research is good...


    1 - Designed by Danish designer Gertrude Engel, for Danish maker Anton Michelsen, who operated a shop in Stockholm from 1946-63, looks like Z8 for 1950


    2 - Linderoth's Eftr/Sven Danielson, Motala, N8 for 1939


    3 - Ge-Kå-Jewelery/G Kaplan, Stockholm, looks like R9 for 1967

    That one is my favourite too.:)
    Take your time and just enjoy them for now.:)
    In the meantime you can research your possibilities, think of how and where you would want to sell. Choose a platform that suits you, and take baby steps.;)

    Thank you Fig! It was the Dutch box (in Silver Forum) that had given me a long wait.

    I don't think I ever checked for marks before:

    upload_2019-11-16_16-36-3.png

    They are on the pin stem; there are no others except these 2. Everything else that might read as a mark in photos is splotchy tarnish created by fingerprints from handling. The 3 crowns mark is incomplete, too large for the surface where it was applied. Would never have had a clue, if I had even looked. Thanks!
