  • very nice,  I like that.......!   I once bought a Bulgarian old hairpin, with similar coins, very very old, (almost falling apart)....... this reminds me of it.

  • Dear Eva; Many thanks for your message. I have just ordered another very old head decoration, which is absolutely unique and I have never seen one alike - it looks almost like a chandelier, which is being fastened on the side of the head cover. Even the dealer mentioned that it is the first time that he is seeing such a unit... Once I receive it, I will post a photo of it. Regards. Peter

  • 2506015292?profile=originalHi Peter, thank you for your comment / info. Am looking Forward to seeing it. Meanwhile I found the one I was talking about, I enclose a Picture. I used to wear it in winter attached to a beret, it looked quite nice. I might do it again.....(had forgotten that I had this).

  • 2506041086?profile=original P.S. it differs quite a lot from yours, I had not in my mind anymore how it looked, as it was stored in a box and i had not looked at it for Long...  (this is how I used to wear it on a beret in winter)

  • Dear Eva: This pin looks very thoughtful - like a flower. This is quite unique, I must say. A beautiful piece indeed. Many thanks for showing me this pin, Eva - much apprecaited. Regards. Peter
