[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 84651, member: 85"]The seller doesn't know what they have and is spamming with possibilities. The earrings are a different stone than the pin and may indeed be a form of jade. The pin is onyx as is Dave's. I think the pin and earrings were bought separately, but are close enough for a woman to wear as a set. As for the type of berry, I do not think it is a necessity to id. As I doubt there are very many berry pin collectors. However, if you must - I would go with the Boxthorn lycium. The crown is the same as the pin, as is the curvy stem. The Gojo has pointed crown and straight stem.[/QUOTE]
