    Hello,
    I've had this for a while, always loved it. Clearly a fleur de lis design, but with some modification. I don't think it's meant to be only a fleur de lis, thought that it may be the insignia of some organization. Any ideas?

      The V and downward curved strips give it the appearance of an angel, or perhaps a priest. Can anyone else see that in it? Also...what is it made of? Are there any markings? What size is it? Is it a brooch? Any or all this information would help identify it.

      Hello and Thanks for the thoughts.
      I see what you mean, interesting.
      I think it's gold plated, ( it's unmarked ), it is a pin, and it's 1 1/8 inches high.
      Thanks again for your comment.

      Could it be a Victory pin?

      Hello Jennie and Thanks for taking the time to contact me with your thought about the pin,..... it may be just that, a' Victory' pin. I'll try researching it. Thanks again and good luck!
