Description

MAGNIFICENT! HEIRLOOM QUALITY! Vintage Hand Painted STERLING & Marcasite *CHERUB/Putti BROOCH*
Stunning hand painted cherub/putti with wings, beautiful, vibrant colors
Surrounded by copious amounts of original, brilliant, secure marcasites (one tiny marcasite seems to be missing, very hard to see with the naked eye)
All encased in sterling silver
There are 2 hallmarks on back, "Sterling" and I cannot recognize the other hallmark.
I have provided close up pictures of the hallmark
This is a magnificent sterling vintage hand painted and marcasite brooch in beautiful condition.
The pin opens and closes as it should
Due to the manufacturers placement of the pin, the brooch lays as it should with heavier fabrics, such as a blazer, coat, sweater, sweatshirt, etc...
The manufacturer has placed the pin parallel to the cherub
Excellent vintage condition
Highly collectible and very rare
Please expect normal wear commensurate with the age of the piece
