I have 6 vintage Tara (marked TARA in script) brooches? Medallions? Sans hardware. I don't know anything. Even what they are. Any help? Thanks. 20210824_184800.jpg
 
Not very helpful, but here’s some info. (You’ll have to scroll way down.)


Ahh, this is better!

Thank you so much!!! Does anyone have an idea what these pieces are??
 
Well, you’ve only shown us one of them. It might help if we could see a few more, and especially if we could see the backs.

But - are most of these “things” singles, or are some in pairs?

My best guess is that there’s a clip or something missing from the straight bar across the top, and that we’re looking at a vintage shoe, sweater, or dress clip, or a clip that might have been used with a stole. Another possibility is that this was some sort of decorative fob that would have been attacked to the end of a ribbon or a piece of leather, maybe for use as a tie belt, or even a useful item like a bookmark or bell cord? But that’s a flat-out guess. I’m hoping somebody else will chime in.

Bell cord… chime… get it? (Sorry ‘bout that!)




Look at the back views of these pieces - then imagine a clip on that plain bar on your piece.
