Brooch with little hidden place
by: Anonymous

Thanks Amanda for your comment. I will take an appraisal into consideration. Of course I am very curious about the value of my little blue enameled brooch. The hidden place is too tiny for a photo but some hair or nice smelling fragance could be the case in my opinion.

Re: french patent mark
by: Anonymous

What a unique piece!

The marking reads "Brevete SDGD" which means Brevete Sans Guarantee Du Gouvernment. It is a french patent mark indicating that a registration for a patent was applied for.

The hidden space could serve a variety of purposes. Poison rings were common during the era as were lockets used to store safe keeps such as a picture of a loved one or a lock of hair.

It is a very interesting piece which would demand more in the way of value then any of the other pieces I've seen listed. Very nice! Hope this helps. For assistance with a Jewelry Appraisal please contact Here...
