This is a beautiful original item. It is a very pretty brooch made of pinchbeck or similar. It has a lovely bar setting with a nice decorative design which goes all the way along the bar to the underside which has a good clasp as shown. It is in lovely antique condition with minor wear & patina commensurate with age as shown. I would date this to late Victorian. As a vintage or antique item, it will show signs of age & patina. Please look at the photos carefully & please do ask any questions, I am happy to help. Victorian Bar Brooch - Beautiful Antique Decorative
