Let this shimmering dragonfly land in your jewelry collection! This vintage dragonfly brooch features iridescent abalone shell wings that glow with beautiful shades of blue, green, lavender, and pearl depending on the light. The elongated body and delicate curled antennae give it an elegant, whimsical look.

This brooch is unmarked but is very similar to examples often attributed to vintage Mexican abalone and alpaca silver jewelry. While this piece is not marked, it has the same handcrafted aesthetic and striking natural shell inlay.
