    Some of these are marked, variously...details will be included with the individual pics. They belong to a friend whose wife (in memory care) collected this sort of glitter but never wore any of it. There will be more of it, eventually...an' I have a couple of finer pieces not shown here that will be posted in Jewelry very soon. Thanks for lookin'!

    I saw two siggies from here; the Weiss mark I could read and the other I can't. Gold-filled probably? Nice collection.

    Agree. Very nice lot. Not sure, but I'm seeing 925 on one, reverse of the brooch top center, photo 2. My favorite is the greyhound brooch. Any markings on that one?

    Not that I've found...an' I looked hard.
    The 'hound has a blue-green stone in his ear, a red eye, collar an saddle-cinch, an' black feet...an' he's spring-mounted! As the pin moves with the wearer, he 'prances'!
    Tho' unmarked, he may be silver (I hope).
    Nope...all that I see in that vertical oval is WEISS. But I wish!
    EDIT: The green center 8 petal with black foundation is also Weiss.

    Wow, extra cool that the hound is on a spring and moves!!

    The black backing on the Weiss flower pin is often referred to as "Japanned".

    I believe these pieces are referred to as "en tremblant" brooches.
