    Dear Toya; This is beautiful. The center stone is gorgeous and so well raised - a really nice button! Congratulations. Peter

    Wow Toya. I have never seen one like this before. Hope you find lots more unusual ones. They must be waiting out there to be discovered!

    Thank you Thelma and Peter. I hope this the first of many to come!

    Congratulations Toya!  It is lovely.  What does it feel like in the hand?

    Thank you Lynn. It feels wonderful. It is old and worn. Someone over cleaned a bit so the gold is wearing thin, but I like that."

    How wonderful.  I also enjoy very much when gilt shows beautiful wear patterns.

    Lovely etherial silver gilt piece! I always feel that worn silver gilt items must`ve been made by fairies!

    Frankie-That's a perfect description. Yes, fairies for sure!
