Description
Lovely brooch made of tombac (tested and guaranteed) with miniature painting on porcelain. The brooch has a rectangular format with rounded corners. The miniature shows a small colourfully dressed boy who is secretly hiding in a dark corner and helping himself to grapes on the vines. A sweetly stealthy look at the shoulder unmasks the grape thief. The simple tombac framing is finely chiselled. On the back the brooch has a pin with a C-hook buckle with which it can be easily attached to clothing.
It was made around 1840 and is a humorous accessory that can be combined with different styles and can conjure a smile on your face every day.
Measures of the brooch: ca. 3,1 x 3,9 cm.
Dimensions of the miniature: ca. 2,8 x 3,6 cm.
Weight: approx. 9.5 grams.
Condition: Very nice historical condition, immediately wearable, freshly cleaned, age-appropriate wear marks, see photos.
You will receive the brooch lovingly packed in one of our high-quality cases and with a certificate of authenticity. Please note: Vintage and antique jewellery are worn objects which may show slight signs of wear due to their history.
