Enamel Squirrel Brooch

[saintsantiques]

My friend said she saw this brooch in a jewelry book but can't remember which one. It's not in any of my books. Thought I would post it to see if anyone has seen it. The clasp is broken, so if not in a book it goes into the junk lot.

I haven't seen him in any of my books.  IMHO this is a newer piece.  I base that opinion on the type of enamel that appears was used on this piece.  Also, the back of the piece looks newer to me.

Thanks, I think she is confused, lol.

It tells me this is a very recent enamel pin, cute if you're into blue-headed squirrels.  Probably Chinese or Thai in origin.  Beyond that, dunno.
