1920s/1930s Antique, Deco brooch with multi-coloured pressed glass stones to centre. Likely Czechoslovakian.
€40.00
This pin is a bit of a wounded bird, as it’s missing 7 perimeter stones, but it is still very wearable and really pretty.
19 intact, small stones surround 6 rectangular, moulded glass stones of jade green, burnt orange carnelian, lapis lazuli (there are even small flecks of gold in these blue stones), and creamy blue and white larimer. Six gold leaves overlap the centre stones. I believe the glass stones are all Bohemian.
Aside from the missing stones and some damage to their settings, the only other flaw to this brooch is a slight bend in the pin. Still a very striking little piece of jewellery.
