Early Silver Brooch

[cannonball]

I had a little play time before work today so I went to a site that had given me two very rare Native American pewter pipes [mid 1600's]. I didn't have much time but I did grab a few dome buttons and this interesting silver brooch. It's 26mmX15mm and unmarked. It reminds of the Hudson Bay Indian trade brooches. If anyone here knows what it might be please chime in.

Congrats on a excellent find and good luck on getting a ID !

Looks like it would go on a hair ponytail. Looks very old, similar age as the buttons. Nice stuff!

I think you may have part of a shoe buckle there.

Agreed.

With how small it is, I would think potentially some kind of knee buckle
