<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 1628014, member: 5833&quot;]Definitely ivory &amp; a portrait of a real woman.&nbsp; See you have another that is a generic fantasy lady.&nbsp; My gut says some work has been done to the pin &amp; clasp, maybe just the addition of those little tacks101010101010101010101010 (digital cat strikes again).&nbsp; Usually there was just a single post attaching each part of the brooch findings into the ivory, out of sight, underneath.&nbsp; The tacks are reinforcement, I think.&nbsp; The safety clasp seems too modern, but I don&#039;t see obvious signs of replacement, so...?</p><p><br /></p><p>She&#039;s lovely.&nbsp; I would like to add her to 2 of the Pinterest boards I maintain, 1 for ivory &amp; another for portraits of Victorian women.&nbsp; Would that be OK?</p><p><br /></p><p>Is she &#039;Granny&#039; because she&#039;s someone&#039;s ancestor?&nbsp; She does not look old to me.&nbsp; Think that&#039;s a big bow we see behind her neck, a young woman&#039;s style.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
