Hi there,
this is driving me loopy. It looks really obvious & I'm absolutely sure I have seen it before, but, I just cannot find it. Scandinavian - Danish? Any help gratefully received & sorry the top one is out of focus. It is a massive brooch & the woman just reminded me of olive oyl

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Not European, but Asian, it's Yogya silver. (I too was reminded of Olive Oyl!)
