Shield Brooch or pendant
designed for other designers
This is a lovely, large brooch which can also also has a loop at the top, allowing it to be worn as a pendant. Despite its size, the brooch is light in weight and delicate, due to the intricate filigree construction, onto which are mounted semi-precious stone cabochons from the Middle East.
The brooch/pin has a modern roll-over saftey clasp.
condition
Good. No damage to the silver. One of the cabochons has 2 tiny chips and another has some crazing, neither visible to the naked eye.
