The badge is gorgeous. kaokite, if you know/learn any history of that badge, please share. I never knew opals were ever an option.... what a unique piece of jewelry to have in your collection.
And kaokite won the interesting bracelets & pin, too!! YEAH! I wanted to bid, but with the bids all secret, I did not want not to bid against another Theta. GOOD WORK!
I am *pretty* sure that the badge itself is exactly the same size. The border around the badge is wider & the stones might be a bit larger on the large crown. I know that the stones are set differently, so they sit up higher & look larger.
