Fabulous Georgian (early 1800s) yellow metal and silver buckle brooch with beautiful large round natural moonstone cabochons. The back is silver - probably a lower grade than 925 silver, eg 800 parts per 1000. I have not tested the gold tone yellow metal, but think it is could be 15ct gold or plating, as was often used, given the age and quality of this delightful little pin, though it could be just a yellow metal or a finish such as pinchbeck.
