<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 675335, member: 2844&quot;]It is a Victorian(?) unmarked gold brooch, made like Raj period tiger trophy jewellery.</p><p>The tiger claws or teeth are actually a one piece glass replica. Obviously made for those who couldn&#039;t afford the real deal, but could afford a little gold.</p><p>The gold tests as ca 9k.</p><p>I found a similar style one on Etsy, but that one had two separate glass pieces, set in brass, and no useful information.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is, does anyone have any idea when this style tiger trophy jewellery was made? Victorian is such a long period, can anyone narrow it down?</p><p>The hinge could be 1890s, so my guess is after 1890.</p><p>And would this have been made in the UK or in India, Malaysia, etc?</p><p><br /></p><p>It is about 5 cm wide. The pin has a slight bend in the middle. The &#039;horns&#039; are slightly irregular in length and curve. The dangle is teardrop shaped.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for looking.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]185517[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]185516[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
