1.Photo 1 shows how you would remove diamond from sunflower--I loostened diamond post from the fastener thingy on the back of pin to demonstrate so you see its size and how it comes out.
Photo 2 shows cat with diamonds fastened in properly
Oval case, perfect, top fits solid--Gorgeous cat sits between two sunflowers--But the center of the sunflowers are actually sparkly small diamond post earrings. The earrings actually go thru to back and the fasteners remove and posts slip out. CLEVER and I have never seen anything like this before
THEN the case top has a fine firm pin clasp (bar type) on the back so you can use it anywhere you like blouse , sweater, purse, etc. and show off the item as a very fine pin or broach SEE THE BEAUTY. It was hard to position the earrings to catch the sparkle..but OH they do, and so does cat collar and that may be from chips. Bottom INSIDE case has a paw print the big letters "MEOW". Marked on back of top of case c. MS.dee-
-Is this Avon jewelry? Anybody know-- I would think not, but this in not my genre of collecting.
ANSWER, YES!!! COLLECTIBLE VINTAGE AVON and at least 25 years old! (Goody!)
PHOTO 3 Little figural pewter case on the Teddy Bear item--In side the Teddy case are a pewter teddy bear charm or pendant and a pair of very small earrings (child) in shape of bows like a teddy would have around his neck-- small ding in edge of top of case (as it was made I believe) which prevents a solid fit to bottom of case. Still stacks on top alright tho. Bottom INSIDE IS MARKED c.MS.dee (Maker name)
BOTH OF THESE ITEMS ARE MARKED PEWTER, BOTH "HALLMARKED "Inside case top-- c. MS. dee (designer name)
Cases about 1&1/2 inches across and 1 inch deep. (dainty items of jewelry might suggest for a child ?? Perhaps.)
Purrrfect versatile piece!
