<p>[QUOTE="Houseful, post: 9718830, member: 1067"]Took the brooch into the jewellers today, they declined the repair work. They didn’t like the lead solder, they thought there was some behind the bracket to be moved which appeared to them to be firmly attached. (I thought that perhaps that might not be the case given that two brackets have already fallen off).They said there were some ‘old school’ jewellers out there who might want to tackle it so I guess it’s auction for the brooch in the hope that it finds one of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
