    For Karen and Jewels1900, the Shipton or German same style brooch!

    In pic#3, I use it as a clasp for wearing a flapper length braided seed beads rope in two rows.

    In pic#4, it is used as a bale for a white jade devil's work (grand mother's spare earring!).

    Brooches can be used in versatile ways!!!

      Beautiful brooch and very creative applications....or should I say Kyratizations. :)
    3. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Thanks to both of you, Bonnie and Mike, for your kind comments and loves!!!

      Thank you Thomas, Fleafinder, Judy and Aura for all your loves :-)

      Beautiful brooch.... You would excel as a jewellery designer.
    5. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      If I had to have a new life... I'd go for gemmology and jewellery making :-)
      For now I love to mix my pieces without altering, that way they are really versatile.
      Thank you so much for your lovely compliment, Martika :-D

      Exquisite. There's not enough adjectives. Wondering if pic. 3 is actual size?
    7. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Gillian, thanks for your interest and appreciation!
      Pic#3 is slightly smaller than reality, the brooch is 29mm or 1.1/8" long.
      The whole combination in pic#4 is 7cm or 2.5/8".
    8. racer4four racer4four, 8 years ago
      So many similarities with both my brooches!
      I just don't have the creativity to use mine the same way as you do.
      Beautiful ideas Kyra.

      Valentino! Nice to see you! Your comment is highly appreciated, I love too how you mix your pieces :-D

      Karen, thank you! I'm happy to share some ideas to promote brooches !

      Huge collective thanks and love back to all of you, 23 lovers!

      Here's a new bit of info on this type of leaf. A ring marked Cork.
