A beautiful hand wrought sterling silver pendant that can be worn as a brooch. Made of cut sterling silver sheet and carefully curled wirework, each element helps to create its intricate radial design, with darkened recesses adding depth and contrast. Green, blue, and gold seem to flicker within the round art glass cabochon at the center.
Made circa 1960s–1970s, this beautifully constructed 2-inch piece has both a pin fitting and an integrated hidden bail, allowing it to be worn as either a brooch or pendant.
