Update, thanks to BelleEpoque, Kiwipaul and Jewels1900 who suggested made by Liberty!
Only mark is a needle etched number on the back : 6593
Mixed metals: moonstone mount, hinge and C clasp are yellow gold!
I don't know if the enamelled brooch is silver, because though very dirty it is not tarnished at all...
Size is 6/8" by 5/8" (1.9 x 1.6cm),
moonstone is 8/16" by 5/16" (1.3 x 0.85cm).
Hoping the caracteristic dented setting and decor will help my dear A&C specialists for id :-)
Hi Kyra, it is certainly interesting, but I can't identify it, maybe Liberty & Co? Still a mystery to me.
Thanks for looking Paul :-) hoping someone will have ideas too !
Hi, Could it be a Chinese brooch? Because I found this:

Thank you Agram for your visit and suggestion, but I can't see any similarity with the piece in the link you posted.
Indeed, total nonsense I wrote it's just an item number which is used for countless other jewelery
nice score...

Hey Kyra, what sort of cat is your current avatar?
Is it real? Looks unusual and interesting.
One of our cats is a Norwegian Forest Cat, she is a big girl, but this one looks huge!
Hi Paul! It is a savage cat, Google for Manul or Pallas cat ^^
Oops, word didn't came to mind... WILD CAT :-)
Hi Kyra
Sorry, I don't know who this is by. But Paul is right re a possibility of Liberty for 2 reasons. The gold pin is indicated of them + they made little brooches like this.
It's one you really want to hold to get a feel for.
Jewels1900! Thank you for your opinion of beeing possibly Liberty :-)
The pin is white, only the hinge, C clasp and prongs are yellow gold.
I think it will stay as mystery until I find other similar identified :-)
The Jean's Wager brooch was sold as Rhoda Wager ( CIRCLE OF) !
Those seller's terms are very important for someone who wants a piece authenticaly made BY the maker :-)
Many thanks to all the lovers, Jean, Don, SophieLady, Efe, Trey and Valentino!
I love you too ;-D
Hi Kyra, out of curiosity what does Circle of 'mean?
Hi Jean, "circle of" means, in seller's opinion, a work by an unidentified artist working in the artist’s style and during the period of the artist’s life.
The very codified terms used in art selling world can be exempled here :

Thank you Kyra, I shall remember this.
Hi Kyra, I also said Liberty since your first post... Also Liberty pieces often have a number on the back... It is so pretty.
Hi BelleEpoque! Indeed you did! In First :-)
It is really a charming brooch, thank you so much for your contribution :-D
If the pin is not gold, then it may not be Liberty. I'll keep it in mind when I'm checking out my books. Some times things sort themselves out in my mind very randomly.
It's got it's own little pattern that I can identify if I find it.
Thanks Budek and BelleEpoque for your lovely loves ;-))
Liberty all over.
Hardly see how they arrived at Rhoda Wager
Stunning...
Anne, thank you so much for your kind contribution on the id, and for loving it :-)
