Vintage Antique 1930s Art Deco Fancy Filigree Chrysoprase Pin
This is a gorgeous 1920s late Edwardian to early Art Deco fancy filigree rhodium/platinum plated and chrysoprase cabachon pin. The stone is translucent green chrysoprase (part of the chalcedony family of stones) and original to the pin. This pin has beautiful fancy open work, intricately detailed millgrain on all of the edges and a fancy scalloped border; very pretty! Condition is excellent. Light age wear on the back but no damage or repair. All filigree intact. Original stone; no chips or flakes or cracks. No alteration of any kind. Very gently used antique estate jewelry. Size is 1 7/8" long east to west by 3/4" tall north to south. It has beautiful intricate open work detail that just cant be recaptured in todays jewelry. Very strong and well made; should last another 90 years! It looks great when worn on a lapel but would also be wonderful for converting to a centerpiece for an antique necklace. This is a stunning antique statement pin for your collection!
