Title: Can somebody please ID this possible precious stone Post by: Aledrob13 on May 04, 2017, 06:28:21 PM Im in desperate need of some help identifying the stone or glass in this find from the other day. It appears to be a brass/copper pendant or brooch with a clear stone of some kind. The stone is clear however gives of a red and green tinge. This was found in a Victorian/Edwardian/Georgian context going from previous finds. Would hugely appreciate any help with an ID on this.

My missus has a couple of moonstones in a bracelet and they look exactly the same as this one.
