A vintage sterling silver citrine brooch or pendant from the 1920's! The piece is made of sterling silver and the aged patina has been left adding further depth of character to the piece. Taking center stage is the whopping natural quartz citrine gemstone! A rare find in this size, it's estimated weight is around 70.00 carats.

The overall condition of the piece is excellent . Besides normal surface wear, there is no apparent damage to the silver, stone or clasp. Hand engraving is still relatively crisp. Natural patina has been left on the silver surface, it can be polished if you prefer. A wonderful vintage piece!
