Seller's Description
Genuine Vintage Sterling Silver Designer Massive Enamel Maple Leaf Brooch
Hello there and welcome (kroeso) to my wee store.
I sell online in high-end shops and websites and pre-Covid used to attend trade fairs around the globe. I have a huge stock of "bargain basement" items which were great at fairs for inexpensive extras. I also have a massive stock of highly valuable and collectable items never seen before on the internet.
I find it heart-breaking that brooches such as this no longer seem to have the appeal they once did as they are one of the most versatile pieces of jewellery you could have.
A statement brooch like this could be worn on so many pieces of clothing providing an elegant statement.
ABOUT THIS BROOCH
Constructed from solid Sterling Silver (925 parts per 1000)
Fully maker assay marked and X-ray tested.
Dates to middle 20th Century (c1970s)
The style is a classic Canadian Maple Leaf with detailed vein work and exquisite enamelling, far better than I could do.
Fastens with a silver hinged pin and roll over clasp - all in good order.
Condition is very good, especially considering its age.
Height is 48.5mm.
Width is 43.5 mm.
It sits 7 mm proud.
Weight is 14 grams
You would expect to pay between £125 and £200 for a brooch like this at a fancy antique shop, depending on your ability to hunt down a bargain.
If you purchase you will have choices at checkout regarding postage:
STANDARD post is not tracked or insured (at buyer's risk)
PREMIUM post is fully tracked and insured.
CONDITION REPORT
Many of my brooches are VERY old and have some signs of this. I ensure they are fully operational and can be worn from arrival but I do not like polishing them to "as new" because I feel this detracts from their history. I will consider doing so, for a small fee, if you ask nicely ;-)
I guarantee all items to be as described and will accept a return on anything you are not happy with.
Please contact me directly via messaging should you wish to do this.
