      Searching thank you so much for your fabulous praise & always kind words, you share in the joy I had finding this piece - such a complementary mixture of blues and greens, and yes the real rhinestones are a rare find and among my favorites (remind me of blue zircon, one of my December birthstone colors). All those prongs, even on the small stones which are rarely found - Dorothy Bauer is another who always prongs the littlest stones, must be alot of work!

      Thank you Lori for your super comment and I agree that these are very oceanic colors & blend harmoniously. When my eye caught this brooch I just knew it was special, the various blue-green colors go together so well

      MrsT thanks so much for your lovely comment and enjoying this blend of rhinestone colors as well, I love them & it was a really nice find indeed

      Thank you Phil for your great comment & I knew you would appreciate the prongs, it's true they give an air of quality to gems such as Sherman's. You are so right, the 60s was a time of fine quality & discovery of better methods in everything, on the brink of the Aquarian age of new horizons
