[QUOTE="KSW, post: 3183887, member: 8708"]Pickings are slim at the moment but I found these little bits to interest me. The glass flower necklace is marked Czechoslovakia on the split ring, it’s filthy and going to be a witch to clean and repair. The little tooth brooch tests as gold but not marked. May be heavily plated. It has had a later safety chain soldered on so there may be a mark under it. The buckle detail looks Victorian or am I way off? The ladybird leaf brooch is a nice little find from a charity shop. I think it is attributable to Charles Horner although it’s only marked sterling on one stem and an indistinguishable mark on the pin. Sadly missing a stem but I still like it.and it’s not too noticeable. Thanks for looking :-) [ATTACH=full]295743[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]295744[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]295745[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]295746[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]295747[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
