    The first three things I grabbed were pins from the table that had "dangling" sections. I already posted the green and purple one. This next one is a Trifari. I don't know if anyone knows Trifari really well. Thinking this is just a generic crown Trifari, but seems very nicely made and I do like the dangles.

    Sweet! This was on the $3 or $8 table? If so you did good. If I had That to sell at shows or the Flea I would put at least $25 on it, maybe more with research. I would guess a date of late 50s-60s.

    Look in the center column, toward the bottom, there are Trifari patents, ads and a 1966 catalogue :shame:

    I'm not the jewelry expert, but I don't see 50s-60s design.
    I see later maybe 70s-80s.
    Only an opinion.

    I have no actual knowledge, thus no argument, on the age, but those channel set baguettes make me think 1960s.

    The smooth finish and style of mark make me think early-mid 50's.
    Pretty piece !

    From the construction and the back I'd have figured 60s, but you never know.

    My first reaction was, another gorgeous Retro piece, which would make it 40s-50s.

    Thanks everyone! Here's one last photo. This one might be my favorite pick of the day.
