A little something about this vintage treasure

Pearls denote such elegance and grace I have never concealed my love for them. These little beads transcend time and nothing with pearls ever look outdated. They are classic and easy to wear. On your dress up and dress down days, just put this little brooch on your jacket to look fabulous.

This gorgeous brooch carries a typical mid-century design: sleek and simple with a ring base and rope like ribbon wire. The textured gold leaf and the cluster of pearls just make everything look delightful.

BOND BOYD STERLING (see the third picture)

Condition

Very good. Shows little signs of wear on the third stalk from the left where the gold has discoloured a little. There is also a small marking on one of the lucite pearl beads (second stalk from the left). The brooch on the whole still looks fabulous. This could be sterling silver as signified by the brand mark. No missing beads.
