This merchandise came from storage. It was part of the inventory from a jewelry store that closed many years ago. There are 9 Tie Tack settings, each with a rear bar and chain clasp. There are 3 sterling silver and 6 which appear to be an antique gold colored metal, possibly brass. The rear clasps on the 3 sterling are silver in color. The 6 others have bold gold colored backs, possibly gold filled. There are no markings other than the sterling tag and the "patent pending" tags, as seen in photo. Each tie tack can hold up to 7 stones. There are various colored stones in the plastic box, and, a few 'dummy' studs. Each stone sits in a screw setting, there are backs that screw into the stones once they are placed in the tie tack.
