These brooches are from ebay or from the fleamarket. The tiny silver one with malachite inlay is the earliest, I think it's antique. But my favourite is the one with a faux turquoise - I don't know what kind of material is it - glass ? I'm not sure about its age either. Probably same age as the (bronze, copper, brass?) brooch on the bottom left. Maybe first half of the 20th century. The remaining two must be newer. Any thoughts are appreciated!!!

Thank you Ken! It was a fleamarket find in Slovakia, 50 cents. I never thought I will collect brooches! I remember how I disliked my mums brooches when I was young. Now I treasure them - because she wore them. She would like this one too.
Your pretty little malachite pendant is Victorian.

I agree with Ken, top right in first pic. is very interesting, and my favourite of all of them.
Martika, do you visit Slovakia often? I live in Bratislava
Thank you Judy, Gillian and Lentilka! I'm pleased you like these brooches.
Lentilka - I'm from Slovakia, and I go back twice every year to my country to visit my family in Komarno and to have some nice weeks in High Tatras.
Thank you everybody for stopping by and for the love clicks!!! :)))
Lentilka, by the way I knew immediately you are from Slovakia (or Czech Republic) when I spotted your nickname. I just love those sweets!!! :)))
Thank you Valentino! I'm curious about your sash buckle!
