Vintage 1930s Silvertone and Marcasite Flower Brooch

More pictures below

This is a large vintage flower brooch dating to the 1930s, of silver-tone metal and marcasites. It is quite dimensional with long curling leaves surrounding a two-tier flower. Except for the stem it is completely covered in pave-set marcasites.

The brooch is fitted with a rollover safety clasp and from the position of the pin is most likely meant to be worn horizontally (as above), perhaps at the centre of the neckline, but it sits nicely when worn vertically too.

Dimensions: This is a large vintage brooch – 6.5 cm (2.6″) high and 4 cm (1.6″) wide.

Marks: None

Condition: The brooch is in very good vintage condition with virtually no wear. The clasp works well, the silver is bright and there are no missing marcasites.
