Description

Product Name: Victorian Art retailer Nouveau Vintage Sterling Silver and marcasite Brooch.

Victorian Art Nouveau Vintage Sterling Silver and marcasite Brooch.
Not marked but tested for silver.

Very good condition. May need a little cleaning, but we do not like to disturb our antique items as our collector buyers prefer to purchase outr items as we find them.

There are 3 marcasite stones missing but this is hardly noticeable. The workmanship on this brooch is absolutely beautiful.

Judging by the retailer pin's C lasp and the pin being longer than the actual brooch I would say this brooch is late 1800's.

1 1/4" wide x 1 3/4" long


(C clasps were very popular throughout the Victorian era and a C clasp of some type was generally in use from around 1850 until 1910. The extended C clasp is the older version of the C clasp and is one of the earliest styles of clasps used for old brooches. The extended C clasp had a long and strong pin extending some way beyond the brooch which was then held by a C shaped piece of metal. The extended length of pin helped to securely fasten brooches to heavy Victorian fabrics.Extended C clasp were less used from the start of the 1900's . Standard C clasps had the same design as the extended C clasp but the pin was shorter in length.)
