[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9596272, member: 2844"]That is so sweet, I love it. I think early 19th century, if I compare it to German religious enamelwork. She is "Our Lady of the Pillar", the very first apparition of Mary. Very popular in the Spanish speaking world, and considered their patron saint. Girls named 'Pilar' are named after her. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_the_Pillar[/URL] Yes, you're right. According to my grandmother you have to say the following rhyme to him to find whatever you lost: "St Antonius lieve vrind, geef dat ik mijn .... weer vind.";) Ditto. I wonder if it was once attached/soldered to something else?[/QUOTE]
