A collector’s piece with timeless charm and a strong presence.
Condition: Very good antique condition, with an authentic patina full of character.
The fastening system (antique pin with hook) works perfectly.
Hallmarks: “800” fineness mark for silver and the goldsmith’s maker’s mark visible on the back.
Period / Style: Late 19th century – early 20th century / Jugendstil & Neo-Renaissance style.
