Description
This estate find is a sweet brooch made from 9 different vintage or antique stick pins. The semi-precious stones and tiny seed pearls and 2 baroque pearls are firmly and properly set, and artistically arranged in the 14 karat gold setting. The piece weighs 14 grams. It is about 2 inches wide by 2 inches tall. It is clean and the pin is straight.From the left in the first photo: tiny moon with seed pearls and a star; jade in a gold frame; a knot with a small stone; 2 baroque pearls; behind the pearls an amethyst in a silver setting; pretty light blue clear stone in an artistic gold setting; another 'knot, and the stone is missing from this one; possibly aventurine in a gold setting; and a little gold wishbone with a red stone.
It is marked 14k on the pin and there are 4 numbers etched in (as I.D., I presume). The gold was tested for purity using a stone and a solution, by a knowledgeable friend. It did corroborate that it is 14k gold.
A one-of-a-kind conversation piece and just a lovely piece of jewelry for a special someone. Thank you for your interest!
