This is a brooch I just purchased and not sure about it's age. The cabachon looks to be glass and is crooked. The pin on the back is longer than the side of the brooch. There are faux pearls and green beads. What intrigues me is the back of the brooch. There is a face and wings at the botton and at the top looks like a crown and these don't show in the front. It's about 3" in length and 2" across. I am very curious about this brooch and if anyone has any information about it I would be very thankful.

I think this pin was made in 1970s or 80s in the style of the 20s.
heya not sure what it is i have a similar piece but the piece i have is on a pearl necklace i post a picture of it later
I have similar items too. I think this is probably from 1950-1970s. I agree - in the style of Victorian or Edwardian. I'll post some of mine too.
Thank you for info on the brooch. Can't wait to see yours.
I posted some bracelets for you to look at. They're from the same timeframe.
