Hi Teresa - I believe this is a Siam brooch - Siam was the name of the country we know as Thailand today.
I have a few similar pieces, but I've never seen one with that particular design on the hat. I've just rented a showcase in an antique mall, will be taking some photos, let me know if you'd like me to send them to you.
Joan
Yes send me some
I was thinking of doing the same thing but as far as pricing I am no good at it
by chance are you from washington
OK - we won't post any email addresses here - you can reach me here: http://www.catdancingranch.etsy.com - use the "contact seller" link and we can get in touch. I'm in AZ. From what I've seen, you have a good eye! Joan
Hi TeresaD,
I found this post searching things about my grandmother's pendant on the internet. It is very similar to your brooch!! I know my grandmother bought it in New York in the earlies 40's. I haven't found anything else, let's see if someone else can help us, it is just because I wanted to know a little bit more about my spanish grandmother's trip to America. Thanks, Patricia.
Thank you And I hope that you find what you're searching for and I hope it helps me to find more information good luck
