Condition Report:
Very Good - A tiny element of wear to the surface of the gilding. This is only apparent upon very close inspection and does not detract from the appeal of the piece. Looking at the markings on the reverse, the piece has also possibly been converted from a dress clip to a brooch at some point.

The Details\.
This brooch is constructed from black Galalith. It features a dancer motif - almost resembling that of a flamenco dancer. It is accented with gold and silver gilding. The brooch fastens with a traditional safety catch and the fastening pin is attached to the brooch with a round hinge. The brooch measures 4cm x 5cm.

Wear it With\.
Brooches are an exceptionally simple way to add instant vintage styling to any look and interest to plain materials. Pin this piece onto a hat, lapel, collar, cuff, scarf, sleeve, waistline or bag - wear alone or with a selection. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
