Determining the Authenticity of a Vintage Butterfly Brooch


Question

brooch
I have a butterfly brooch my grandmother gave me.  I cannot tell if it is costume jewelry or if they stones are real.  I was wondering if you could tell or not.  Thank you. -Jessica

Answer
HI,

I can not tell from this picture.  It is too small to see.  To really know I would have to see it live.  I would sugguest you find a jeweler who has a gemologist on staff they will give you a free opinion I am sure.

Good Luck,
