I can find no marks on them. The both look to be Victorian era. One with seed pearls and one with a coral? rose. Gold filled or gold plated? Both have C hook clasp. Thank for any help on these!

Both Victorian. Gold filled but I would have them checked, sometimes that open back construction is gold
The one with the flower is a watch pin. Beautiful!

Just wanted to comment that it's so interesting that this Victorian brooch has pyramid studs on it . I think of those as very modern . Guess they fall into the everything old is new again category .

In the photos ,both look to have been repaired with lead solder. and the "pearl"one seems to be missing a part.

I have a pair of Victorian earrings with pyramid studs. Got them in a repair lot for basically nothing and had them fixed. They turned out to be 18k

I agree that the pearl brooch could be missing a part. Definitely looks like it's had a lead repair in the front that has come apart.
