[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 386788, member: 85"]Nice brooch. I don't mean to put a damper on your pretty pin. But Goofus Glass is the wrong term for it. Goofus glass was pressed glass that was painted gold and red, and sometime with green accents. It often washed or flaked off. I think what you have is an intaglio pin that has been enamel painted. Don't know if there is a specific name for it.[/QUOTE]
