Dora could wear this Edwardian amethyst and pearl antique pin to go shopping in Pittsburgh when she arrived home from her adventures in England in 1915. I could see her boarding the trolley to go Downtown right now. Everyone would have complimented her on her exquisite taste. Purple amethyst hues combined with the fourteen carat gold ones mimicked the sunset. Just to give the brooch pin more glitter and fascination cream and silvery white half-pearls are embedded in the piece pictured today on http://www.edwardwarethrillers.org.
