In the past I never was interested about brooches. But it changed ( thanks to this website). Now I have got quite a few, they look old and I hope they are old. Of course I can't afford expensive, high end pieces, but the cheap stuff can bring lots of joy too. I got this cute brass brooch from ebay for next to nothing, nobody wanted it, so I took it.
Would love to hear if anybody knows anything about it.
I would have taken it, too! I think it's quite pretty, almost too pretty to be brass. The C clasp/rivet hinge means it could be 1930s/1940s.
Thank you Efesgirl! The first half of 20th century was my guess too!
My husband thinks it's not a brass. Can it be bronze or copper-silver alloy?
I wondered if it might be bronze. Brass usually gets yucky over time. Can you add a photo of it upright and against a blank surface? Maybe I can find it or something similar.
Yes, I will. Thank you for your efforts, Bonnie. And thanks to everybody for the love clicks, I appreciate it!
Here it is the third photo.
Thanks, martika.
Nothing similar came up on an Image search....well, poopie..... :-((
Never mind :))) I appreciate your effort
