<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 2627412, member: 36"]Victorian for sure, from the era when mourning jewelry was a fashion statement. I'd be guessing, to be polite about it, 1870-1885 or so. The pin stems got shorter the closer the date got to 1900 and the angular design with a floral background fits in with 1880s design sensibilities. But you Brits are crazy so ... dunno.(LOL)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
