American Victorian 18k Yellow Gold Pearl Brooch Pin
Regular price
$1,116.00
Presented is a fine American Victorian 18K gold and pearl brooch. The pin is solid 18K gold with a small pearl at the center. The gold setting is beautifully textured with scrolls and leaves against a nicely stippled background. The original pin stem has been replaced with a modern clasp, which will be much more secure than the original. This piece was made in the 1870s or 1880s, high Victorian.
The pin is marked 18K on the reverse. We have tested it with nitric acid and guarantee it to be 18K gold.
The condition is excellent. The original pin stem and clasp have been replaced as described above. There are no splits, no breaks, and no other repairs.
The pin measures 1 1/8 inches by 1 5/8 inches.
The weight is 13.3 grams.
