Description

The listing, Antique Victorian Mourning Brooch has ended.

For your perusal is a somber Victorian era mourning brooch. This pin is quite intricately designed. The center has a cameo of the profile of a bust. The lady in the cameo has very coiffed hair and her head is adorned with a tiara. She is also wearing a necklace with a pendant and an evening gown.

The outer edge of the cameo is edged with a delicate gold border. Wrapped around this border is a gold chain. This sits atop an oval shaped base that has flowers at the top, bottom, and sides. As you can see in the pictures, some of the metal has turned or worn. Looking at the edges of the pin, it looks as it it was possibly gold plated. It is a really lovely hand made pin.

Thanks for looking. All Listia rules apply.

I'd love to know if this cameo is 1" long or 4" long. I cannot tell by the photos, sorry.

The brooch is in my desk at work. I can measure it on Monday morning. I would estimate it to be 3.5" tall and 3" wide. Thanks

Since the response to this listing has been so positive, I have decided to include a pretty, pink, gift/storage box to keep your brooch safe and stored on style. I tried to post pictures, but the site won't let me. Thanks again to all who bid!
