Beautiful vintage Schreiner of New York brooch featuring a large domed champagne/bronze-tone center cabochon surrounded by sparkling clear faceted navette rhinestones.
The rhinestones are arranged in a highly dimensional, layered design, giving the brooch the dramatic sculptural appearance for which Schreiner jewelry is so collectible.
The brooch is signed SCHREINER on the reverse of one of the navette settings.
