Bought "buy it now" as vintage art deco costume brooch...
Seller shipped only to USA...
Million thanks to the kindest CW angel who helped me to get it! <3
No marks, old oxydation between gold and silver, which made seller believe it was plated...
As new, surely stayed in a box for 90 years :-)
1.5" square, 19 grams!
It is not a 19th century example, but, from the hinge, around 1910.
This is one of my better pieces :-D

Lucky you, a beauty!
Bee-u-tiful. Great find!!
Wonderful find Kyra. It's lovely, the stones and the design are beautiful.
It is so beautiful and I wondered what the center stone was and you answered it is a moonstone . Lovely piece for a lovely lady ! :-)
Thank you Eyeforbeauty for your very nice comment!
Thank you Marga, I was very, very lucky :-)
Nutsabotas, many thanks for your visit and appreciation!
Gillian, I'm still under fascination, wearing it as a pendant on pearls :-D
Lots of thanks to you, Caperkid, Aura, and many to you Mani, for the loves!
Nearly Mani... not a MOONstone but a SUNstone :-D
Oh sunstone !! :-) excuse my foggy mind still under medical care and meds make for poor eye sight and slow thinking . Hope to get back on track soon xoxo
Oooh, take care and rest yourself to restore your health Mani!
Gorgeous bee!
Got a great BUZZ from seeing this one! BEAUTIFUL! [;>)
Yes she is an angel. Love to her. I love that stone that is the thorax, just pulls me in !!
It needed to belong to you and what a CW angel for sending it along. Another wonderful bee-u-tiful treasure!
Adorable post kyra, love bees as well.

Magnifique.
A wonderful piece found by a CW angel, now in the hands of a deserving owner.
It's hard to believe it is over 100 years old; as you say, probably unworn.
I am sure you look oh so cute Roy when you wear it <smiling>
kyratango we were right all along :-) wink
Magnifique! You're a mighty hunter!
Stunnng!!!
Roycroft, Oroyoroy! You're both charmants, absolument magnifiques and fabuleux!!!
Do you wear one only hat for two? ;-D
Karen, thank you, for sure the seller didn't appreciate it as I do!!!
Mani, lol!!!
Paul, hi! Miss you and your wonderful posts!
We all have sometimes a little luck ;-))
THANK YOU!
Oldfashionedgirl, thanks! I'm still stunned to have it :-)
25000 Bzz Bzz to all of you, 25 lovers :-))
Winking ...lol Kyratango I'll tell ya,.. having a split personality isn't all its crack up to be ...smiling When Elbert Hubbard did work for a nut house from time to time he was picked up by a fella at the train station, as the horse traveled down the road they talked and as they talked Elbert asked how long he was employed there ..the fella said no I dont work there,.. I'm here cause I'm crazy Well Elbert said you seem normal to me ..The fella replies back and says I not crazy all the time, just like sane people arent sane all the time ....lol ;-)
Lol, Roy!

Ha Windwalker! My baby is the same age! I feed him with high protein cat food and a pinch, lol :-))
What an amazing bzz bzz, kyratango!!!! Such beautiful work! :)
Thank you so much Katherine! I was indeed very lucky to have been helped to get it :-))
I had seen this stone before but never knew what it was called -- sunstone! It's perfect for you, my sunny friend. :)
kyratango, is this certainly sunstone? From the photos I thought perhaps goldstone, though of course you are seeing it up close so you would know best.
Ha, Kath I didn't knew there is a difference, I thought it was the same... will have to Google that :-)
In French it is called aventurine pailletée!
So, I'd say this is goldstone!
Kyra - is this your little adopted friend?
Ah yes, I thought so, aventurine, or goldstone, very beautiful! I kinda knew because I have a brooch with a goldstone cabochon. Although mine has a surface like stone not glass. Anyway, that's why I wondered. :)
Yes Valentino, this is Ziggy, baby blue tit, waiting to learn to fly :-)
I raised sometimes ago two, named Pitt & Bull!
I carried them anywhere with me in a basket with their food...
Someone asked me why my handbag made noises, lol!
Oh I love this story! Ziggy is so darling! And Pitt & Bull? Did they fly off? I carried Valentino with me everywhere too but I asked her to be quiet. She was usually under my shirt sitting on my bra top. Sorry everyone - is this TMI?
Aww, Valentino! Your Valentino was so well behaved birdie! Can't even imagine any of my birds hiding under a shirt without tweeting or peeping out and even bite me...
Pitt and Bull were released, only Pitt came to me during two weeks, following me in the garden, and even to the neighbourhood :-)
And for the TMI, those who don't like to hear our animals stories can go straight out, lol!
