<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 4555077, member: 5833"]There's something strange about the brooch: the hinge is on the left, the clasp is on the right. This would be awkward for a right handed wearer who dresses herself, but would be an appreciated convenience for a left handed wearer or the maid who has to position it on the bosom of m'lady. If it had fallen off & been reattached carelessly running the wrong way, the clasp would be upside down. It is not, so this was deliberate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
