Found this today at an early New York city site. Any clues ?

Very interesting and rare - it's part of a 1939 DuJay Du Jay Rhinestone Enamel Rickshaw Brooch Pin.

I don't know. It looks more like modern "bling" to me. 5 spoke rim including 5 lug nuts. Hmmmm

I would have to agree. If it was part of deepsecrets broach, the broach assy would be almost a foot across! Maybe off a modern purse or bag.

Like Cudamark said, your wheel is way too big to have come from a brooch.
