The listing, Vintage Awesome Costume Brooch 60x48mm has ended.
This is not precious metals. I collect costume jewelry and cool jewlery of the past. This giant Brooch is 3 inches by 2.5 inches set with a large yellow glass stone (paste) in center surrounded by small stones in green,blue ,red, purple and yellow paste. From my best fiend the Costume jewelry expert it is post 1950 and probably was a piece that was sold on a dress as an accessory as it is completely unmarked. My guess is 1970's at the latest as the stones are set in with actual prongs.
It has some heavy gilding rub on one area but does not seem to distract from the overall reflective nature of the piece a great holiday colored special occasion brooch. In good condition completely wearable.
