My 1st Walker and a Brooch

crazydigger · Apr 29, 2011

Found this walker and a cool brooch today in same area. The walker is 1918 and I have no idea about the brooch. I cant find any identify marks but it is all silver. it was about 6-7" deep. Maybe someone can help me out with the brooch. I think its hand made because of inconsistencies in the settings and designs.

Thanks!

Nice finds, but don't be too certain about the brooch being silver. I took a piece to a silversmith once because I couldn't find any identifying marks and he told me that sometimes these kinds of pieces are some other metal (but I don't recall what it was).

Thank You folk for all of the fine comments, I'm glad you enjoyed. Reading the responses from people who share the same affliction is almost as rewarding as making the find. HH to all!
