Victorian Pallet Bar Brooch
Here is a wonderful, whimsical antique late Victorian / Edwardian bar brooch featuring the most darling little painter's pallet. The pallet is etched with an aesthetic period design featuring tiny leaves and three paste gemstones in red, white, and blue. The pallet sits on a long bar. The Victorians loved novelty jewelry, and this is an excellent example. The Brooch has an antique style C claps that functions nicely. The face of the pallet has lovely decorative etchings in the aesthetic period style. This Brooch is a fantastic antique conversation starter that is ready to wear or collect.
