1. Excellent. Kingfisher is coloured, looks enamelled? There is a topaz or something similar inset into the upper right. The wishbone that it is mounted on is sterling silver. No issues with this. 2. Good. This is hallmarked. The ornate thistle is simply hooked on with two pieces of wire, this is the way it was made. The belt design has a green colour with something over it, maybe enamelled. This has flaked off behind the coloured stone. A little bent in places is this belt design. This is quite an early piece by the look of it. Grade: N/A Estimate: $$50.00 - $75.00
