[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 715014, member: 2844"]Nice find for 23 euros, antique jewellery from Germany. Gold and goldplated. The plated brooches have some wear. The brooch top centre is gold, but has some solder on one side.:facepalm: I'll see if I can fix that. The one at the bottom has a tiny seed pearl. They were all filthy, and I am in the process of cleaning them. [ATTACH=full]187819[/ATTACH] I bought the lot for the pendant, which is gold with Bohemian garnets and rock crystal. The back is gold plated silver, and the stones are mounted in silver: [ATTACH=full]187820[/ATTACH] This style with the garnet rosettes is typical of Schwäbisch Gmünd, a gold and silver manufacturing town in southern Germany. The style was mostly worn with the costume of Munich, Bavaria, ca 1840-1880. I love it.:happy:[/QUOTE]
