About the Item

Antique Turquoise Bird Brooch: This Victorian era brooch (circa 1880) features a swallow adorned with turquoise cabochons and two ruby eyes. The swallow is 800 silver - a slightly lower silver content than sterling silver which is 925/1000 parts silver. The brooch measures 0.8 inches by 2.25 inches wide and weighs 6.49 grams. It is in very good condition with nibbles to some of the turquoise cabochons (visible under close inspection). The c-clasp is also a later replacement. The metal content of this brooch was verified via XRF (x ray analysis) and with jeweler's acids. Upon purchase, your brooch will arrive elegantly packaged, ready for gifting or as a special treat for yourself. We carefully wrap each piece to ensure a delightful unboxing experience.
