Beautiful Art Nouveau styling, this antique brooch combines a wonderful classical portrait with an intricate filigree frame. The gold is a deep and rich yellow; and the filigree work is superb. The floral motif is carried over in to the lady’s hair and dress, with carefully carved roses perfectly placed to take advantage of the color of the shell.
This can be worn as a pin or a pendant.
