Beautiful vintage sterling silver brooch handcrafted in Guatemala, featuring an intricate openwork filigree design surrounding a striking Blue Morpho butterfly wing protected beneath a clear domed cabochon. The brilliant iridescent blue color shifts beautifully in the light, making this an eye-catching collector's piece.

The reverse is marked GUAT 925, indicating sterling silver made in Guatemala. This marking became especially common from the 1940s through the 1960s.The brooch has an older-style C-clasp pin closure .

The butterfly wing identification is based on the piece's construction, appearance, and Guatemalan origin and has not been laboratory verified.

Good vintage condition with light age-related wear and surface scratches consistent with age
