[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 9597229, member: 29"]I am so absurdly excited by this one. Debora, huge thanks: that is just the coolest thing. Some of my ancestry is East Anglia, so you never know... I do now wonder if this started as a pendant with the pin and clasp being added when the inscription was done. The gold carat looks slightly different, and the whole thing is heavy. If it was, it was very well done. I don't know if it's Dad and Mam, not sure that was an 1860s usage, but maybe Pa/papa and Mama? These are the other things she sold me. The dolphins are more recent, destined for my godddaughter. Oddly enough, the seller was at my other car boot this morning, and had more jewellery, but it was nowhere near as interesting.
