This is one of my first finds. Georgian or early Victorian I think. Made of solid silver and very big. Quite unusual being double sided. I love the tiny little opaline glass cabochon. An odd design tho.

This is an interesting one too. Think it may be late 17th early 18th century. Spanish colonial. The green gems are glass and the metal is silver. The enamel plaque is of a Saint.
I sooo want to know where this has been in it's life!
