[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 392686, member: 2844"]You're right, so it is, I hadn't noticed the double tail. But only of Bohemia, not Moravia, which has an eagle. That would make it Bohemian, not really Czech, because it is minus Moravia.;) The pin hinge together with the length of the pin past the clasp looks ca 1890, which is also pre-Czech. If you want to sell it, it is best to use terms like Austro-Hungarian and Bohemian. Czech not only refers to a later period, but also has connotations with a certain type of costume jewellery.[/QUOTE]
