<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 344602, member: 5833&quot;]A jeweller will probably have other, maybe better ideas, but I am imagining something that is basically A-shaped, with little tubes on each foot to slide it onto the pin stem, a cross bar for stability/sturdiness. It would be sized so the apex could just slide under the upper rim as the pin was closed again.&nbsp; How &amp; where the bail would attach the jeweller would have to figure out based on how the piece balances.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aurora/Eos is fine, but <a href="https://cameotimes.com/index.php/profiles-1/allegorical/day-and-night?showall=1&amp;limitstart=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://cameotimes.com/index.php/profiles-1/allegorical/day-and-night?showall=1&amp;limitstart=" rel="nofollow">she is often seen in conjunction with her opposite number in a jugate composition.</a>&nbsp; Since her sister is routinely known as Night/Nyx not Dusk, the daylight figure is usually seen as Day, sometimes you see the Greek word, Hemera.&nbsp; It&#039;s sort of a distinction without a difference, Day/Daybreak.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have long wanted to know how the female version got started.&nbsp; Originally it was <a href="http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/record/A106D7D2-D2A2-4487-B557-773349E83158" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/record/A106D7D2-D2A2-4487-B557-773349E83158" rel="nofollow">Phoebus</a> (Apollo) who represented the light, while his sister, Phoebe (Artemis in her aspect as <a href="http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/record/54957331-0801-47B0-8D2A-01639EC1C6C8" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/record/54957331-0801-47B0-8D2A-01639EC1C6C8" rel="nofollow">Hecate</a>) ruled the night.&nbsp; Suppose it was a natural progression to a feminine character, but <i>someone</i> started it.&nbsp; Just lately found an answer to a question that has bedeviled me for years, so there&#039;s hope that someday I&#039;ll find this one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
