In ancient times, perhaps wisely!, a lack of trust in banks meant that many carried their wealth about their person – often in the form of brooches, elaborately decorated with gem stones. Today those here with stones are mainly good quality glass stones, though some do feature natural stones. The designs are of timeless beauty and enduring appeal. All attractively packaged with general historical notes.
