    3/14/21 UPDATED DESCRIPTION:
    This bookmark and a couple other pieces were in a small group I found among my Mother's things
    after
    I had taken the majority to a jeweler to look over (because I am not a jeweler, or collector). So I have recently closely re-examined those pieces, and was very surprised to realize the flaws in this piece. To my untrained eyes I had not ever noticed that the "teeth"  holding the stones in place were not uniform, whether made that way or damaged over time, or a combination of both. Both stones seem to be securely in place. The rest of the bookmark is in good condition for the age, with a few very light, not really noticeable unless under a bright light, scratches around where the artist signed, and right beneath the large feather and between the bottom 2 on the front (which I believe are viewable in the original photo).
    I do try to take care to point out any flaw in any of my listings no matter the size/type, and in no way have I intentionally tried to hide or not disclose them in this listing. If I had realized it, I would have pointed them out as I am doing now. I have taken and added more detailed pictures to make the listing as accurate as I can.
