This is a beautifully detailed ornate figural brooch pin/pendant signed “Original by Robert,” featuring a sculpted cherub or child’s face rendered in antiqued silver-tone metal, surrounded by a layered construction of pastel enamel flowers in soft yellow, cream, and butter tones.

The cherub wears an enamel collar accented with sparkling clear rhinestones, and the piece is finished with clusters of rose-colored and white glass beads along with green enamel leaves. A rhinestone flower with a fuchsia -colored center sits at the bottom of the design.

This brooch includes a bale so it can also be worn as a pendant. Every rhinestone is prong-set and the piece has real weight and dimension to it, a good example of the quality craftsmanship this maker is known for.

Condition:

This brooch is beautiful. It is in nice vintage condition. All stones are present and secure. It has a straight pin closure on the back in good working order. There is some glue residue noticeable near the pin apparatus on the back of the brooch ( see next to last picture).

The silver-tone face shows natural age-related tarnish/patina in the recessed detailing, and there is minor enamel wear loss on one or two of the flower petals ( see last picture).

Please see pictures for condition and measurements.
