[QUOTE="KSW, post: 4300564, member: 8708"]I’ve tried to do my research on this brooch but could do with some expert help to date it please. This brooch has flat top glass gems. I’ve looked at plenty online and most are described as Georgian but this isn’t as it has an open back. So then Victorian? But it’s got a short thin pin so unlikely. So Edwardian? The pin and setting is thin and cheap looking more like 30s….but…..I can’t find any glass garnet flat top brooches to compare from that era they are all earlier. Hmmm, any ideas please? Thanks for any thoughts :-) Apologies it’s dirty, those prongs resist a quick rub over with a cloth so I’ll have to take my time with it.
