this australian antique opal miner brooch is 9ct gold and belonged to my grandmother and is a favorite of mine I like the colours the opal chips still retain after all the many decades

What a lovely, unique piece of jewelry!
A great piece of history . Love it
Thankyou Efesgirl and Manikin:)
Never saw brooch like this one! Is there liquid in the tube, as in floating opals pendants?
Your grandmother had so much interesting pieces :-)
I love family heirloom like those still remain in the family!!!
yes I believe so but over time (100 years) it dries and the black oil like substance is what is left
Another interesting and charming thing about these brooches is a man would give this brooch to his bride to be and she would wear this on a lace collar :)
All the women in my family never threw any thing out! And I am fortunate that my mother and grandmother did enjoy fashion and jewellery:))
