Carved Cinnabar & Sterling Brooch

Jewelry : Antique : Carved Cinnabar

 

This is a beautiful example of Cinnabar carving in a 1 ¾” long x 1 ½” wide rectangular brooch, with tiny sterling wirework as border, and more sterling wirework on back. Nice heavy floral carving on the cinnabar--a beautiful piece. The cinnabar itself is in perfect condition, the sterling border, on upper right corner, has a small break in the piece--missing--as shown. The backing is also perfect; all sterling has tarnish, just needs polishing.
