Buyer's Premium:

A circular openwork brooch-pendant crafted from 925 silver. The piece features a domed, layered filigree construction in a stylized floral pattern. The design includes a central cluster of seven round-cut faceted lilac amethysts, arranged with one central stone surrounded by six others. The outer perimeter is set with an additional eight round-cut faceted lilac amethysts, each housed in a bezel setting and accented by a twisted wire rope-work border. The reverse is fitted with a horizontal pin with a safety C-clasp and a fixed bail for wear as a pendant. A rectangular stamp marked SILVER is present on the reverse, with a second illegible mark located below it.


Condition report:

The item is in good vintage condition. The silver displays a dark patina and significant oxidation within the recessed areas of the filigree work. All fifteen gemstones are present and appear securely set. There is minor surface wear and light abrasions consistent with age. The pin mechanism and pendant bail are functional and intact.
