[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 441978, member: 29"]I've had that hinge on late 19th C stuff - and the long pin suggests that sort of date. But I'm wondering if it was once an earring that got converted. For such a wee thing, it has a very well done setting indeed. Centre stone on mine absolutely glows, it's better than the ones you guys found. ;) No marks on it, I've gone all over. If it is brass, it's been gold plated, too. No wear, no verdigris. I think it was worth two dollars.[/QUOTE]
