Brooches

This is a cute dragonfly brooch I recently picked up. I am not sure if this is Sterling Silver and it is really nice quality .  I am using it to pair with some of my floral artwork. My mother had this in her jewelry box when I was growing up.  It is a badge in brownies group.  She never spoke of where it came from.   This was from my Aunt's estate and this is what I found on line This was a part of Mrs Appleton's estate. She was our neighbor growing up in LaSalle I purchased this in the Laurentians at an Roadside Antique Barn run by a wonderful guy named Jacques.  Its an Antique brooch with a man portrait. A nostalgic vintage costume jewelry piece. Age unknown Size approx.: 2.6 cm I am unsure what type of metal it is. There is some crazing on the glass. There is also signs of green oxidation which looks copper. 

My Panapet Panasonic radio from the 1970's

    I sold my cute radio today to a woman buying it for her sister who was turning 70. She was so easy to deal with. She sent me a message asking me in the morning and was promptly at my house by noon to buy it.  This is the rating she gave me: Thank you Dianne I can't wait for a picture of your sister with her Panapet.
