Seeking Help Identifying Colorful, Old Brooch

Hello!

 

I'm hoping that some of you might be able to shed some light for me on this multi-color, detailed brooch.  I think the back is particularly interesting, with what seem like layers of filigree (if that's the correct term).  It has some heft to it, at 34g.  

 

I'd appreciate any insight you might have about age/maker/origin.  Thank you!

Looks like vintage Czech. Sometimes they are marked on the back and sometimes they are not. The colorful stones are very Czech along with the filligree look to the metal. I would date it to the 1930s because of the clasp.

I don't know a thing about it except that it is drop dead gorgeous!  I've never seen one with a more beautiful array and variety of stones.  Quite a find!

I agree it looks Czech to me as well, possibly 1930's-1940's
