Title: Re: Ideas please Post by: Val Beechey on March 05, 2015, 04:13:15 PM I wonder if it was a bar brooch. The little loop at the bottom may have hade a jewel dangling from it.
At first glance it looked very German and I thought cap or lapel badge but I'm more in favour of the brooch. Very nice find, can't beat a bit of silver and mystery.
