    After tramping through five flea markets, this is one of two worthwhile things I brought home. Nice and heavy. The onyx stone doesn't have any damage, which is surprising. The pin is a bit bent - nothing I can't fix - and clasp is missing the middle part, but I can easily find a bit to replace it. I am pretty sure this is Balinese, as I found another one with the same design done in reverse. That would be the brooch in the fourth photo, which is stamped ".925 BA" That one is newer, as the hinge is more modern. The link to that brooch is below in the Comments.

    Thanks for looking/loving, CW friends!
