    This is pin is made of silver and has a Vermiel gold overlay. Lots of colorful enamel, greens, turquoise and royal blue, slightly chipped and shabby but that's ok, it's old. Nice size at about 1 1/2". I prefer to wear this as a pendant held on by a slip knot. The necklase is made of leather so it doesn't damage the pin. There is no real turquoise on this it is either enamel or pottery in origin. The half pearls are real.

      How about the center stone? I think that is real Turquoise... No?

      Thank you for all your comments. The center stone when you use a loupe, has some cracks in the coat and it appears to be white clay or pottery beneath. So I don't think it is, but I can have my friend whose a jeweler confirm it.
