    This is an odd coincidence. I found the Aurora Borealis brooch at the large Salvation Army store I usually go to. The tiny ear ring was in a grab bag from our little Salvation here in town. It matches perfectly and is marked Austria on the clip but.......there was only one !!! I dug through the bag several times thinking I might have missed it but no luck. There were three other bags at the store but they wanted a lot more money and I bet it was in there if anywhere. I've bought two or three bags before and matched pieces from bag to bag. Bummer :( . I'll check on Monday since they're not open on Sunday but they tend to sell quickly. Anyway these are beautiful stones with smaller azure blue ones surrounding them. The brooch isn't marked but I'm pretty sure it's Austrian too judging by it's construction when I compare it to the ones I posted yesterday. -Mike-

      Thanks Ken :).... one may turn up eventually or I could turn it into a pendant.

      Very pretty. Probably from 1950-1960 just the pin depending on size could be worth 30 to 75 dollars.
