    I got these two jewelry pieces at the Flea Market last weekend, and posting today because it's raining out so no Flea! :^)
    The filigree gold vermeil Butterfly Brooch is a beauty, delicate, but with a sturdy pin back and support. It's unmarked, could be from the 1920's? Not sure though.
    The Pendent, also unmarked, looks like costume jewelry, but has real stones. Looks like a green Jadeite backing stone, an Opal in the plant, and the Peacock's chest, a Garnet on his head, and a clear dark blue stone in the plant above his tail. I don't know what the Chinese? writing on the other side says, or it's age.
    Thanks for looking, and any comments. I really can't help on anymore information. For size I've put a U.S. Quarter.

      These are very pretty!!! The pendant looks unusual to me !!! :)

      Thanks for looking, and your comment martika, I bought these both from the same seller at the Flea Market. The price was good, but he really had no information about them, so I'm on my own to figure out what the pendant is. Well, or with some help from the nice CW people! :^)
