The brooch is in good condition, commensurate with age. It has a pin and C-hook catch and features a (later) safety chain, and the clasp is detachable. It bears no hallmark, nor stamps but in our opinion it would test as silver and gold. The approximate qualities of the diamonds are; caratweight 0.25, colour I/J/K, clarity I1/I2/I3. Gross weight 11.8 grams. CR made 27.07.23.
