[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 3006529, member: 51"]My first thought (like everyone else) "Wow, great photos!" Followed by, "LOVE these pins!" From your opening description you have good ideas. Also thinking Chinese export for 1 and 2. The first one is really unusual. I've seen many Chinese brooches with turquoise and coral, but nothing like this, especially with the open backs. Even with a quick search couldn't find anything similar, maybe someone else would have luck. Actually as amazing as #2 is, I think this is my favorite. #2 is just gorgeous, gorgeous Chinese export. Can't help with the center stone but love the pattern on the sides. Beautiful. As Evelyb mentioned #3, which is a very pretty piece might be hard to nail down as to origin, but maybe others will have thoughts. What stunning pieces![/QUOTE]
