Already quite a while ago I show you here some equal jewelry (see link:
http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/4527-dutch-silver-antique-peasant-set-parure )
Here in my home country, we have, as in many other countries, several peasant costume jewelry dating from the distant past.
This type of jewelry comes in gold but also in silver. It is always my goal to form a set, so this one.
This set is antique, sterling silver and cool. Missing one Belcher chain, but that is all ready to be repaired.
This silver peasant costume jewelry set is formed by:
1. Necklace 2. earrings. 3. Brooch
I hope you will find this beautiful jewelry.

Can you tell us more on the "peasant" part of this? Mountain people? Farmers? Does the necklace have symbolism?
Amber thanks for you interest, comment and loving. Here the answer:
Regional costumes - also called peasant costume - played an important role in the history of everyday life in the Netherlands . Since 1800, received clothing in many regions and cities gradually a distinctive and recognizable form .
Today, walking in some places , like Staphorst , Spakenburg and Scheveningen every day women in clothing that shows where they come from. Most, however, are not the youngest , and their number is smaller each year . So there gradually eliminate regional costumes as' living gestation . This is area-based clothing that changes over the years , and with his unwritten rules play an important role in the society that clothing habits are shared.
The region jewelry are available in both the gold and the silver. There are in Dutch local jewelry often used grenades , but also coral .
Each region has its own traditional costumes and the accompanying jewelry .
I myself have too little knowledge of exactly these symbols to know, but they are probably .
