    image.jpg Hello all.
    I purchased this what I was told amber leaf brooch.
    On looking further I saw these numbers and letters.
    Would anyone know what it could mean??
    It look like the number 6 with a letter R which is backwards and a k. All in a box on the clasp . I sent photo but appreciate hard to see. Any help would be greatly appreciated .

    I think it may be Gold Plated, but not sure. Someone will know.

    Is that really amber? I have one, and always thought it was glass.

    Given that the "R" looks backwards, I wonder if the the mark is Cyrillic.

    It's a Russian or at least Baltic pin, so no surprises there.

    It is pressed amber, so real Baltic amber that is heated and pressed into a shape. They also actually melt the amber, which gets a better result.
