Description: Vintage Filigree Sterling Silver Mexico Pin Brooch This is a magnificent sterling silver brooch. A truly one-of-a-kind statement piece of jewelry. Description: The brooch has a lovely floral design. It measures a spectacular 4" inches in width, stands out 1" in depth, and weighs more than 60 gms, or about 2.2 ounces. It is marked Mexico silver and has been tested to be solid 925 sterling silver. It has three levels of detailed filigree craftsmanship, with two separate layers containing 10 large outer petals, and with a delicate center array of 9 smaller petals and 16 individually-crafted filaments and anthers. Condition: It is in excellent vintage condition. The filigree has no breaks or flaws. The pin mechanism is solid and sturdy. It shows exceptionally with its vintage (c. 1960) patina, or may be readily polished to restore original brightness. You will find similarly designed Mexican silver brooches online, some from the same artistic silver studios in Taxco. Please compare them to ours for quality, size, weight, and condition. And then look at the price. You decide. _______________________________________________________ Provenance/guarantee: This brooch was among five pins and three sets of earrings inside a small box labeled 'sterling silver jewelry' at an estate sale in suburban Philadelphia.
