1930s
Trembler Flower Pin --
this pin resembles Deja (which later became Reja), but is unmarked.

trembler spring. Measures over 3" tall. Condition:
Good to Very Good, with some enamel chipping and one missing rhinestone.

Green
and Yellow Enameled Pin -- this is in the Czech style, and may very
well be Czech. It's also probably early 20th century. Antiqued goldtone,
with blue and yellow enameling. The center stone is difficult to identify;
it is probably glass textured to look like natural stone. Condition:
Very Good, with some blue enamel loss (see bottom of pin).
$40 |

Pink
and Black Art Glass Bracelet -- this did not photograph well; the
lovely black-striped glass cabochons are actually more pink. Paired with
black matte glass faceted rhinestones. The textured oval jump-ring on one
end is a bit flattened; this may be correctable, but I'm not going to try
it. Condition: Very Good, with some goldwash loss on
reverse and that flattened jump-ring. $75 |

Rhinestone Flower Pin -- lovely lily-like pin, with petals set in
