Victorian Shell Brooch
$210.00
Circa 1900, an antique brooch designed around a shell, with smaller shell dangles, artistically wrapped in rose gold-filled wire. Jewelry featuring amuletic elements like shells was popular in the 19th century due to the fervent public fascination with unique cultures considered primitive at that time.
Details: Measuring approximately 1 7/8" east to west, and 1 1/4" north to south including the dangles.
Condition: In excellent condition with a gentle antique patina to the wire.
