This enchanting Mid-Century Vintage brooch will delight fans of opal, our national gemstone.
Designed as a stylised floral sheaf, it features an oval opal doublet of 10mm length with very good play of colour – flashes of yellow & red against a background of rolling blue and green.
Three graduated pearls of excellent lustre adorn the stalk of the opal “flower”, framed by a golden leaf with a delicate florentine finish.
A simple and very nicely balanced design, this vintage beauty looks fabulous against a dark lapel or neckline!
Measuring 50mm in length and 15mm wide, it weighs 3.79g and bears a 9ct stamp to the rear.
It is in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks to the opal and no damage to the pearls. It fastens securely with its original rollover clasp.
A beautiful vintage Australian piece!
