    I feel like I should know what this is, or what is it used for….but I have no clue. What is it? IMG_9183-compressed.jpeg IMG_9182-compressed.jpeg

    You're referring to the cut-out, aren't you? Have you searched out other examples of the craftperson's work to see if s/he has uses that device often?

    It’s a brooch I think. But there has to be some use for the cut out. Right?

    I am still trying to decipher the signature. Haven’t found the maker yet.

    Could/would you post a in focus close-up of the signature? I see "Cruz" as the second word but that may not be correct.

    Cute little sterling and turquoise brooch. Navajo, probably.

    Eyeglass holder, maybe?

    There is such a thing as a bolo brooch, but most look different from this.

    I'd almost bet on this being half of something. Sweater guard maybe.

    You know those awful visitor name tags with clips or claws that you have no way of attaching if you don’t have a jacket or a shirt pocket? The brooch could solve that dilemma, too, for all dress-, blouse- and sweater-wearers.
