This is a pewter stickpin set with a nice oval cabochon of amber. I believe it is a reproduction of a Victorian piece, with all the sinewy metalwork. My daughter gave it to me, knowing of my love of pins (you remember that she doesn't wear jewelry herself). So I don't have any knowledge of its provenance (maybe it really is from an antique store somewhere!).
This is an easy piece to wear, but I have put it permanently on an alpaca dress coat. That way I know where it is, and I don't have one more thing to think about when getting dressed. But I have a taupe fedora that I might be bold enough to try it with one day.
