    I found this brooch yesterday together with a second one (I will post it next) and I think it might be an unmarked Sherman piece. The quality is really very good. The AB stones have a gorgeous sparkle and the setting is solid and well done. The brooch is constructed in two layers.

    The condition of the piece is excellent. There is not wear on the back and the stones are in very good condition. There are some minor scratches on the stones but they are not visible to the bare eye.

    The design doesn't look to me as a recent one. If I am wrong and the pin is not a Sherman piece, I still think that it is a well made item worth having. What I mean by that is that it has some quality to it and does not give the appearance of a cheap, mass-produced item.

    The third and forth photo include an earring. The earring is marked Sherman and displays a very similar construction and design. I just put it there for comparison.

    Any comments or suggestions are greatly welcome and appreciated.

    Thanks for looking:)

      I hope you have better weather than we have here. Yesterday we had -18 degree Celsius. Today, when I left my house, it was much warmer: only -14!
