This is a livery button (now a pendant) made in Austria (TW Superfein Wien) with the Coat of Arms/Family Crest for the Noble Frolich family of Sweden by way of Austria. 

 Noble family originating from Gersdorf in Styria in Austria, and known since the 16th century. The family came to Sweden with colonel Hans Christoph Frölich (1602–1658), who in 1630 went into Swedish military service.

 His son, the colonel and commandant in Malmö Carl Gustaf Frölich (1637–1714), was naturalized as a Swedish nobleman in 1682 28/12 by King Karl XI and introduced in 1683 4/1, but the family was excluded in the more recent register as having been introduced in a higher dignity.
As councillor, general of the infantry and president of Dorpat's court of appeal, he was further elevated simultaneously to baron and count dignity in 1706 21/6 by King Karl XII and was introduced in 1713 17/12 under No. 49, which was confirmed in 1719 (before 28/2) and that the later date would count as the introduction date.

These items likely date to the 19th century Frolichs, Erik (1802-1875) and Oscar (1828-1905), the latter a military attache in Vienna.  

The helm has three knights helmets with closed cages signifying Royalty. Each has a Duke's coronet. 

The supporters are a lion facing left on the left and an eagle facing right on the right. 

The shield has the maiden again and castle towers. There is no motto.

I have two of these available. If you have preference indicate the first (four photos) or second (five photos). 

From the same estate I also have a larger more detailed carved bone crest on a wooden wallet/folder. See last photo, not included.
