    Thank you, kyratango!

    This little bit of art came from the same shop at my Isadora Paris collier. The MOP is carved on both sides, and the mount tested for silver. The clasp dates it to +/- 1915-1920 I didn't think the mount was silver until Geri decided to test it just out of curiosity. The thrift shop was very good to me today!

    Thanks for looking/loving, friends!

      Yep, Bonnie, a gaming chip!
      But I'd place it earlier than 40's, with what I call "anti poke" clasp I'd say 1915/1920.

      Won't play poker with you... you always get the best cards ;-D
