    They are nice aren't they. I was pipped at the post on one of those on ebay a while ago. I thought an auto-bid of 16 quid was probably enough to bag it but it transpired I was wrong.

    They do turn up from time to time but you have to keep looking. Use "pewter dragon brooch" as your search string.

    I suppose I'm late to the party, with this thread, but I thought I'd show a series of enameled autumn leaf pins I recently rounded up, to use (mainly) on my new "Leaf Peeper" tartan. Depending upon how windy it gets, I figure I can wear more than one at a time, mixing and matching appropriately to limit the apron blowing around.

    I think that string of four together looks great. And I really like your leaf peeper!
