Once more, a 2nd look at a few things mentioned here in my previous showing:

Thanks to helpful experts MsCrystalShip and Watchsearcher, I now know the pins in this group aren't necessarily for lapels but otherwise known as "scatter pins" which, I presume, the lovely lady would indeed rather randomly arrange somewheres around the top of a garment for just a little more 'bling'.
The pair of silvertone ones both feature a larger oval rhinestone over a trio of small ones, these don't look to be anything terribly old or fine, but they're kinda pretty anyway...if nothing else I might to be able to use one (or both?) as a tie-tack for myself except that I don't make a habit to wear ties... ;-)
The trio of pink roses might be another story though they are also unmarked -- they appear to be made of very delicate porcelain of some sort with a rhinestone as the center of each and are quite detailed in their make and coloration, likely also quite fragile though not appearing to be damaged in any way despite it. Their posts are set into the porcelain (instead of being glued to it) and, without any real knowledge, I'd suspect these really *do* have a little age to 'em -- if nothing else because they'd likely be made of plastic these days...?
The goldtone butterfly pendant is probably a contemporary-ish piece, as seen in my original showing its backside is simply textured, and there are no maker's marks anywhere on it. I assume its frontside color is an enamel glaze of some sort, but I'm not up on exact materials used to create such things.
They all are very nice. The roses are so detailed, delicate. Beautiful all of them
They are so precious <3
