Vintage Black Butterfly Sculpted Pin Brooch Pendant Coral Eyes
Carved Natural Stone
Art Deco Look
Fan Shaped Wings
Incised Sculpted Body
Gold Tone Metal
Faux Coral Eyes
Lepidoptery or Lepidopterology

This simple but elegant butterfly combination brooch/pin or pendant is in excellent condition and has a beautiful luster to it. it may be Onyx, but it could also be another type of material. It measures 1 3/4 inches across and 1 1/2 inches tall. The fan shaped black wings are mounted on a gold metal body or backing. The wings are sculpted and incised with lines to represent the veins of the wings. There are faux dark reddish coral shaped tiny balls for the eyes. There is a bale and loop for a necklace if desired. There are no marks on this brooch. I'm not sure when it was made, perhaps 1970s or 1980s, but I'm just guessing.

This is in excellent vintage condition with a bright and shiny gold front accent against the dark black. It would make a great addition to anyone's collection of Butterfly Jewelry. It would also make a wonderful gift for someone who is into the study of butterflies and moths; Lepidoptery or Lepidopterology. Please look at the photos as they are part of the description and show the details better than I can describe.
