[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9545528, member: 2844"]The charming brooch is likely to be Austrian, they used to use .935 silver. That cannetille work together with crimped settings is popular in traditional Austrian folk jewellery, but you also see it in the Balkans. The stones are likely to be glass. The other number is a manufacturer's code. Date guesstimate 1930s. I can't read the marks on the dress clip, other than sterling, but the shape is very Art Deco. Could we see the front, and also a closeup of the marks please?[/QUOTE]
