Hugh Roberts, The Queen's Diamonds, page 206 does say that the brooch is "English, late nineteenth-century"
I confess I had not noticed that entry in the text.
This brooch should not be included in this list as, although Queen Mary purchased it in 1932, it was not made during the Depression era
Amy jewellery experts know the age of this. It looks too large to have been new in the 1930’s, it seems to be a Stomacher/Devant de Corsage type brooch.
