It is being made again now! Thanks for posting! :^D Please Wear a Mask, Lets Stop the Spread of COVID-19! :^)
Thank you everyone very helpful. I have some others I have posted no idea where to start a few have markings. I’ll be posting more tonight :)
There is a signature on the back of the Brooch in gold paint. Can’t make out the intials because of the fancy hand-writing. BJ BT?
They're made in a factory in Russia, it's the gold painter's mark for book keeping, for a finished piece probably. Here's a link to more info, from another CW post that might help:

I have a bag of 50 or so, of oval ones, a few are older ones, but most are newer, made after 2000. Most of the antique ones are more detailed! :^D Stay Safe and Wear a Mask! :^)
Great, I will look into them. I see them quite often in the thrift stores and never really knew what they were. I’m slowly learning. Would anyone know of any Books to recommend for Identification of vintage gold and silver Jewelry?
