Nice finds Andre. check out Victorian Star Brooches on eBay, there’s a few similar to yours.
The button is in great condition, probably about the same date as the brooch.

                  One never knows what may turn up next Andre, just keep swinging and hoping and that elusive gold will eventually find "you"!

I noticed that Andre but didn’t like to say they were better than yours, ;D
Yours probably looked just as good (from a distance) when it was new  ;)
