I bought a brooch at a community flea market today. I don't usually look for costume jewelry but this brooch really caught my eye with all the different color jewels imbedded in it. I turned it over and noticed it was signed, however, it was too small for me to read. I purchased it for $5. It's signed "Mazer Bros." and there are no stones missing and the gold tone finish is in beautiful condition. I tried searching Ebay to see what the value is but I cannot seem to find a sword brooch made by them. If anyone knows what the value would be on this brooch, I would greatly appreciate your input. I think it was worth spending the 5 bucks. :icon_profileleft:

It looks pretty. Your pic is blurry though so hard to see detail. Does the back or pin post have any other markings?

Here are a couple of pics of top and bottom of brooch. Hopefully they will show more details of design.

Thanks for the info! I tried looking for this brooch under "sold" on ebay but found nothing.
The lady who sold this to me said that her husband does "clean outs" and this came from a wealthy woman's estate. The flea market lady also had like ten Joan Rivers brooches for $25 each. This wealthy lady really liked costume brooches!
I figured it was probably worth more than five dollars but I never heard of Manzer Bros. and never thought a costume brooch could go over $100! Thanks again for info!

You're welcome. Nice find and good eye picking it out. Always amazes me to see how much some costume jewelry sells for.
