This exquisite vintage brooch features dazzling details, a lustrous 9 karat yellow gold-plated finish, and a breathtaking paste rhinestone at the center.

As you can see, this brooch has a remarkably unique style. It is rather long and culminates in stylized fluted edges.

The sides and center of the brooch are further embellished with dazzling hand-hammered and hand-etched accents.

These bold, geometric designs give the brooch a distinctively Etruscan look.

The Etruscan Revival style thrived from the mid to late 19th century and was characterized by the use of Ancient Roman themes and designs.

Smooth leaf shapes are applied to the face of the brooch and feature hand-etched textural accenting while the center of the brooch is ornamented with a breathtaking violet-red paste rhinestone.

A classic "C"-style brooch clasp on the reverse of the piece will make it easy to wear and display.

Though the brooch exhibits some expected darkening and a few light surface scratches, it remains in good vintage condition overall.
