<p>[QUOTE="Ce BCA, post: 4334092, member: 18716"]That's good to hear, I hope they start to come our way. Aside from specific areas and collected names we are finding (gold and silver) brooches are about as low as they have been over the past 20 years and we were getting more for them 10 years ago. As Kyra said they seem to be a good buy at the moment - it's a buyers market. We also sell world wide from our own website and via the online platforms, although we only source from the UK.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully there will be a good revival, but it's going to need some younger style icons to drive it. Looking at the demographic of the women you posted they are not going to inspire 30 yo professionals to take up the brooch mantle. Most younger customer we deal with still think of brooches as something your nana wore unfortunately.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
