Six pointed leaves are placed between this ring and the round hole in the stem, which are closed by a loose, decorated ring. Decoration: The ornament at the bottom of the stem, the button and the loose ring are set with small, faceted steel beads. The pointed leaves are opened in holes with a flower-like motif. When one used to go to a ball, it was common that the woman got a small book flowers of her supervisor.

Such a pin and necklace with ring are missing in this case. Giving flowers was not just a nice gesture, but the pleasant scent of the bouquets had to dispel the stuffy air in the busy and warm space during the partying.
