<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSW, post: 4320242, member: 8708&quot;]As we had a monsoon here today and the car boots were washed out I headed out to an appointment and just accidentally tripped into a charity shop on the way home. </p><p>This brooch was £1.50 and was screaming at me that it gold although I couldn’t see a mark.</p><p>Anyway it does test as gold, 9ct holds firm and 14 for a while before fading. Tbh it looks very hand made and quite rough in places but it’s the clasp that I’m interested in. It’s a roll over type but self closing as you push the pin down. </p><p>Does this date it or are they still being used today by students or ‘a man in a shed’?!</p><p>Feels quite modern but WDIK! </p><p>Thanks for looking <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]353059[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353060[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353061[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353062[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353063[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353064[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]353065[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
