hy Two Pieces in the Collection Date Back To the 16th and |8th Centuries GQOMEONE IN TOWN will have a chance this week to acquire an antique brooch which once, it's said, belonged to the Duke of Talleyrand’s family. The piece will be among antique jewelery to be séen tomorrow through Wednesday at Charles Mayer's. The brooch

is an elaborate diamond spray, dating back to the 18th Century. It is designed as a large diamond flower with groupings of leaves to form a complete floral spray. Of Russian origin, it contains about 28 to 30 carats of old mine-cut, fine white quality diamonds. Even older is a Renaissance period necklace made back in the 16th Century. This has a Venetian pendant in the form - of a galley ship. The full mast, rigging and hull are made of beautiful filigree workmanship and have touches of red, blue, green and white enamel, with three oriental pearl drops suse pended from the ship. The pendant, we're told, 1s similar in style to the famous Drake Jewel now in the Victorian Albert
