Scottish hallmarked silver thistle combined brooch and posy holder or 'tussie mussie' Edinburgh 1881 Maker L&A - which we have been unable to trace. There is a design registration PODR mark with the date code for 15th June 1881 Parcel No 2 Class 1.
We have been able to trace the original design registration for this piece and it was registered by Andrew Fraser of Edinburgh. Presumably he was a partner or owner of the firm "L&A". The description of the piece was that it was a brooch and flower holder.
The posy holder would have been attached to the clothing by a pin mounted on the back.
