Antique Victorian Paste Esprit Pendant Brooch

About the Item

Deliciously Large brooch from the Victorian era. This piece is a full 3 inches of articulated splendor. Depicting a bird, this brooch features lovely past stone pave in a number of colors including clear, red, blue and green. This enormous piece features a large pin back to support its weight. The piece shows signs of wear consistent with it's age, mostly visible in the metal discoloration. The floral motifs and splendid sparkle from the numerous paste stones make the piece look especially great. The piece does have a bail at the tail of the bird so can be added to a chain.
