Condition details:
Overall this pin is in beautiful antique condition.
The stone on the back has a shallow chip where the artist worked the gold around. (see close up photo)
The front of the stone has very fine scratches which are barely visible when turning it into the light, a bit more so under magnification. But this is not visible when looking at it normally. The color is such a rich deep green, it's mesmerizing.
A rare and desirable piece to add to any fine antique jewelry collection.
Measures 1~3/8" x 1~1/16"
