An another one of these Dunno-how-old-it -is mysteries that i would like to hear your opinion about. Flea market find as usual, for my usual 1 EUR.
The metal is cold, no sharp edges.
At first I thought this might be berlin iron jewelry, but the stuff is not magnetic (not to my tiny weak magnet at least).
To me it looks to be handmade, plus the C-clasp...
What do you think?
This was made in a mold, but it does have quite a bit of age. I would give it a 1930 +/- time frame. It's a very nice brooch!
Thank you Efesgirl! As always.
One question, why 1930s? Not that I want to dispute you, I am just curious.
The C clasp wasn't really used much after the 1930s.
aha, thank you! so thats why
:-))))) welcome
In Europe, especially Eastern, the c-clasp was used several decades after 1930s, so the age is uncertain. The design is very attractive.
Thank you Davyd! Glad you like it!
