    Gorgeous brooch, looks German. But I can't see the mark well enough to make something of it.

    Someone in here always suggest putting flour in the mark to make it stand out

    i thought it looked more like a 9 after a bit of cleaning, so it was worth the effort :)

    you never disappoint Aj
