Cupid and euros  are the center of the drama in this HUGE 3 1/2" fabulous antique stickpin brooch. Attributed to goldette, this is such a fabulous piece with stickpins all the way around it permanently Fixed. Little known fact, in victorian times when stickpins were getting a bit out of style, jewelers would make them into pins such as this. Some would have 4 pins, some would have more. But there were mementos of things in the past that were remade into a piece that they could wear.  The amber  intaglio Bavarian crystal  glass is surrounded with beautiful metalwork. . The massive brooch measures 3 1/2" across.   This has some good weight to it and is well made.  The stickpins include cameos.snakes, flowers, bees and many aesthetic  symbols popular in the art nouveau and art deco period. For  walk down the runway, a special event or if you need that one piece of jewelry that sets off an outfit, this HUGE brooch will do it for you .. A real conversation starter too! It is in great shape .
