Seller's Description
Genuine Antique 18ct Rose Gold Amethyst Statement Brooch Pin
Hello there and welcome (kroeso) to my wee store.
I sell online in high-end shops and websites and pre-Covid used to attend trade fairs around the globe. I have a huge stock of "bargain basement" items which were great at fairs for inexpensive extras. I also have a massive stock of highly valuable and collectable items never seen before on the internet.
I find it heart-breaking that brooches such as this no longer seem to have the appeal they once did as they are one of the most versatile pieces of jewellery you could have.
High quality brooches like this are a joy to behold and will make you feel like royalty.

You would expect to pay between £1,500 and £3,000 for a brooch like this at a fancy antique jeweller, depending on your ability to hunt down a bargain.
Fully insured and tracked postage MUST be purchased with this brooch.
CONDITION REPORT
Many of my brooches are VERY old and have some signs of this. I ensure they are fully operational and can be worn from arrival but I do not like polishing them to "as new" because I feel this detracts from their history. I will consider doing so, for a small fee, if you ask nicely ;-)
I guarantee all items to be as described and will accept a return on anything you are not happy with.
Please contact me directly via messaging should you wish to do this.
