There was a time in history where jewelry had real stones; this mexican silver brooch has a nice large rock in it. Found this one at an estate auction in a dollar box. In my opinion it was the nicest piece of jewelry in the auction and thrown into a junk drawer box. I was the only bidder on the box of pens, pencils and paperclips? Came with the cute little box too.
