    Hello everyone.

    Thought I would post this brooch on the off chance that someone may have some information about it.

    I think it is unmarked silver which is really really textured! Glass? eyes, measures roughly 1" x 1".......and sort of 3D is the best way I can describe it.

    Has an old pin....so victorian or edwardian? Weight is 9.58gm.

    Not much else to tell......and any thoughts at all would be appreciated thank you.

    Unsolved Mystery

      Cute, in sort of an Off-The-Wall kind of way. [;>)))
    2. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago

    3. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago

      Cute! This brooch is marked, though. I can see a stamp on the reverse side, near the bottom, third photo. Rectangle shape. Too out-0f-focus in the photo to be able to read it.
    5. Efesgirl Efesgirl, 8 years ago
      Edwardian in date.

      Cutie westie dog's face!
    7. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Thanks efesgirl, have just cleaned the back and that rectangle has disappeared. ...but I have found what looks like a mark so will post it as well. Also has some jewellers numbers scratched on as well.....give me a few minutes
    8. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      As you can see it has lots of scratches and marks all over!!

      Thanks Kyratango....couldn't think of that dog!! and for the love!
    9. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      brunswick and Caperkid.....thanks for the love! Appreciated
    10. Efesgirl Efesgirl, 8 years ago
      Tassie - it does look like marks, but as to which way is up...I dunno! Looks like initials in the photo.
    11. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Thanks Efesgirl. ...appreciate your effort.....and love.....it will turn up one day!
    12. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      aura,Nicefice and Peasejean55 thanks for looking and the love....it is appreciated!
    13. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      It looks like the etchings ends with a z y ...
      Perhaps the name of the dog?
    14. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Goodness knows kyratango!! Maybe your eyes are better than mine lol...might have to take it outside in the natural light tomorrow and see if anything jumps out. Thanks for helping!

      Love it -- it has that look of those Lion Brass prunts ( punts ) on things

    20. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      OK.....have been outside with the Westie......nothing to report!! was practically standing on my head to try and find anything else to identify this brooch.....I think it might remain a mystery, however at least we know now it is Edwardian and it is a Westie dog face..... thank you everyone.....
    21. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Thanks very much Newtimes and racer4four....appreciate the love!

    24. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Thanks very much every one for the love....so many of you!! I really appreciate you taking the time to look and love!!!
    25. davyd286, 8 years ago
      The texture circles on you Westie have more "facets" than those on the poodle, and they are set much more closely but it's the same idea, imho.
    26. TassieDevil TassieDevil, 8 years ago
      Hello davyd286...thanks for taking the time to compare the poodle and the westie!! Will just have to keep searching....my Westie will turn up one day....usually does when I am researching for something else lol!!! Thanks again, regards Judy
