[QUOTE="Brian Warshaw, post: 3058681, member: 16674"]Bronwen, thank you for that. I recall that we did take it to a jeweller at the time. He too commented on the mount and suggested we could have it remounted in gold, but he attributed the model to a Victorian female, and didn't mention the stone. I think he suggested that in the current mounting it was worth about £100, and we didn't have enough money then for necessities, let alone a gold mount. My wife has just corrected me. She says the jewellery did mention the three colours of agate, and it was that that made it interesting. She also thinks he said it was Victorian, without adding gender. We haven't got it insured, but perhaps we should, what level would you go for if it fell into your hands today? I couldn't find a left looking profile, but this one to the right is the spitting image. Thanks again, it's good to know who it is.[ATTACH=full]291486[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
