Description

The listing, ~WOW~ HUGE Antique Rhinestone BROOCH-"Deltah?" Free Shipping has ended.

I acquired this at an estate sale and have had it for a few years just veg-ing in the back of my jewelry drawer. Infact, I'd forgotten about it until I had to take everything out to find something. It came in the jewelry case you see in the 2nd picture which shows the name Deltah.
I did find a few brooches made by Deltah on Ebay but they are mostly famous for thier faux pearls.
Most of the articles I found went back into the early 1900's, so this brooch could be pretty old. The size tells me also that it's most likely from around the 20's as well.
It's in very good cond. but there are at last count 5 small rhinestones missing. I've just never gotten around to replacing them. Mainly because they are hard to find unless you're looking for them.
It utilizes several facet cuts from rectangle, to tear drop to round and several sizes of each. There's several stones that could even be brought up from the underneath to fix this.also.
As usual I'm drawn to the "Gee, I've never seen a brooch so BIG" stuff LOL. But, it's true. This is a monster brooch!

Please feel free to comment, ask questions, just hang out what ever. Glad to have you!

I will include tracking on this and I'll do my best to get it sent within a day or so of the auctions end.

Have fun!

Wow, that IS big! I can see it on a floor length cape, a swan lake ballerina head piece, at the waist of a dramatic evening gown, holding a sheer scarf at the shoulder, as part of a bride's dress or veil, and many other drop-dead gorgeous uses. Stunning!
