This Antique brooch is an exquisite example of Art Deco craftsmanship, dating back to the 1920s.

It is composed of 900 silver, a slightly lower silver content than sterling, often used in vintage jewelry for its durability and antique finish. The centerpiece of the brooch is a vibrant royal blue guilloché enamel, a decorative technique involving a fine, intricate pattern engraved into the metal beneath the translucent enamel. This creates a shimmering, almost three-dimensional effect that catches the light beautifully.

The brooch's elongated bar design is characteristic of the Art Deco era, emphasizing clean, geometric lines and symmetry.

The central oval medallion is adorned with a delicate raised floral motif, further enhancing its elegance and adding a touch of femininity. Surrounding the enamel centerpiece and extending along the bar are sparkly marcasite gemstones, known for their metallic luster and ability to mimic the look of diamonds. These gemstones are carefully prong-set, adding texture and enhancing the brooch's visual appeal.

The brooch's size and design make it versatile, suitable for both men and women. It can be worn on a lapel, scarf, or even as an accessory to accentuate formal or casual attire.

This piece is not only a stunning example of Art Deco jewelry but also a testament to the fine craftsmanship of the early 20th century, making it a treasured item for any collector or enthusiast.
