<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 379004, member: 36"]Am I the only one thinking the pin could have been made in New Orleans? If those are Mississippi pearls it would be the logical place. They certainly had jewelers who could handle the job. It also appears to have something like a trombone clasp, and most of those are continental European. A French-trained New Orleans Jeweler might have used one too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
