"Striking" mid-century snake combination piece:
~ Coiled serpent design
~ Open mouth so detailed you can spot the split or forked tongue
~ Glowing red orange rhinestone jeweled eyes
~ Textured diamond patterned scales
~ Antique gold toned finish
~ I am guessing this to be circa late 1950's - 1960's in age
~ Rare form and extra versatile - You can wear it as a pin or a dress clip depending on which hardware you utilize. It is also very possible to clip it to a chain, cord, or ribbon of your liking and wear it as a pendant on necklace or choker focal point
Ready and waiting for you to gift or add to your lapel, neckline, or collection - you will love it!

View & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged. I will do my best to note anything glaring or distracting. Please utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all.
