Two SIlver Jewelry Designs
Two designs for silver pieces of jewelry, possibly brooches or pins. The first is shaped like a butterfly with a purple colored stone for the head and one smaller pink stone on each wing. The second looks like a flower with three white petals and three white pearls in the center. The designs are numbered individually (continuous from the previous pages).
