Very unique vintage pin / brooch with a curved or wrapped profile:
~ Lacy Czechoslovakian type filigree base with a very interesting curved diamond shaped profile
~ I am assuming it was meant to be a sweater, shawl, scarf brooch or similar where you could roll or bunch fabric and the curved shape will accommodate and hold the material and the pin hardware will secure it safely
~ Covered with flower blooms set with round Persian or Robin's egg blue cabochon glass turquoise jewels
~ Off white ecru enamel or white washed finish - perfectly time worn and chippy for that shabby chic cottage look
Ready and waiting for your creativity, scarf, shawl, collection, or gift giving - you will love this!

"A picture is worth a thousand words"
Please view & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, wear, and/or discoloration. Most older pieces by nature normally are "Perfectly Imperfect" and have some degree of all - and unless severe, aren't considered damaged and not mentioned (especially if obvious and/or prominent in the photos). These characteristics lend to the vintage look, charm, story, and are part of the history of each and every piece. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for "vintage charm" so do utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all and gauge for yourself, as they are an integral part and extension of the description.
