You may want to take these to the jewelry board.

This is Collectibles and Art.   Try the Jewelry Board.  They should be able to tell you if you have costume jewelry versus gem stones.

 Can you flip them over and take a sharp closeup of the backs? Some here may know about them. Are there any marks?

Here's a match to the green one.

Post close up, clear images of the other 3 - front and back @meb5023 , and close ups of any markings.

GLORIOUS!

No good info on the piece in the listing, but the images are good and may help someone here provide more info.

GLORIOUS!

Based on @wastingtime101 's finds,  seems like you have costume jewelry from the 1960's or thereabouts and now know what others are asking for them.  Keep an eye on the "sold" prices to have better idea of value.

They are costume jewelry @meb5023 and even though the links posted above show sellers are asking high prices, you should listen to @melda58 's advice and check prices of listings that actually sold.

 

From what my research showed, mid century brooches like those typically sell for $10-15 apiece. A friend of mine that deals in jewelry took a look and said you'd be lucky to get $60 for the lot which is consistent with my research. Sometimes you can push your luck with truly amazing photos and just the right key words.

 

Look at the 2 listings linked above for reference on photo quality.

 

Hope that gives you some direction.

GLORIOUS!
