<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LucyLocket, post: 9750768, member: 13859&quot;]I have just bought this brooch and wonder if anyone here would know anything about the makers mark?</p><p>It was sold as silver tone metal and was quite dirty when it arrived. I gave it a bit of a clean and it was gold tone, not silver. Then I spotted the marks on the back which look to be 9C SIL LD-AL. I understand this to be 9 carat gold &amp; silver - the brooch itself is gold and the pin &amp; C clasp are silver.</p><p>I have searched online and can&#039;t find any makers with those initials. As this is an Australian Air Force item I wonder if it was made there rather than in the UK. I found a similar RAAF wishbone &quot;mother&quot; brooch in a museum in Melbourne but with no information about the makers. </p><p>If anyone could help I would be very grateful. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]478538[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]478534[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]478535[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
