    I have a number of brooches, but this one (aside from my gorgeous peacock brooch) is far and away my favorite! Trombone clasp.

    http://www.myclassicjewelry.com/blog/vintage-jewelry-education/vintage-jewelry-hardware/

    "The trombone clasp, patented in Europe in 1850, was named after the musical instrument as it had a tube with a round top. You would pull the top out to release the pin. These were used in the latter half of the 19th century into the 1950s, mostly by European jewelers."

    Thanks for looking! :-)
