The scrollwork on this piece is finer than most marcasite brooches of the same type.
A silver-tone openwork brooch in a tapered leaf silhouette, set with clear round rhinestones arranged in a flowing wave pattern across the surface.
The safety-pin-with-chain closure is a swept guard pin — a design that distributes weight across two anchor points and holds better on lighter fabrics than a standard bar clasp.
The scale suits a coat lapel or scarf equally well. Light enough to wear on a knit without distorting the fabric; the silver tone works with white, grey, and navy.
