It's a James Avery piece

I did not expect to see the James Avery mark on the back of this thin sterling pin I got at a Goodwill last Friday. One I found on eBay sold for 88 bucks. This one was just over 5 bucks.

I flip sooooo much James Avery, I would be THRILLED to find a piece like that at Goodwill. Does it have a bale on it also so it can be worn as a pendant? It's really a shame, there are so many beautiful brooch designs that they turned out that don't get nearly as much love as the same item would as a pendant just due to pins being out of fashion.

It's a pin. It is an odd design for an Avery piece I thought. Most all JA stuff I find goes to my wife and I buy her a new piece every Christmas. With all JA stuff I've found in the thift stores over the years has made for her a nice sized collection of James Avery jewelry. I gave her first dibs on this, but she said it wasn't for her and I can go ahead sell it. Someone will like it, plus I've kept the boxes on the ones I buy new and maybe I'll add one of those to this pin in the sale.
