I had it tested and it is 14K gold. I was wondering if anyone would know it's age.

Could be gold plated by: Jo
Hi Peter
that's a very unusual item. Is there a compartment inside? Like how a locket opens up to reveal a secret compartment? I had a large memorial brooch that I sold at auction - it was very ornate like yours but embellished with religious iconography and it also had a greenish caste - although there is low carat green gold - mine was gold plated. The green tinge might indicate its gold plated or low carat green gold. G14K is a bit confusing - as it could suggest either the maker or the gold content. Boy, it's heavy, must be large. Hope you can find out who made it.
