Vintage Silver Plate Paste Brooch antique_heart_locket which was how it was

which was how it was sold to us from a reputable auction house

As with time many of the dangle portions became damaged

achieved without the aid of modern tools

It doesn't close with a snap but does not open when worn and stays shut even when shaken

The allure of this French filigree bracelet lies in its timeless appeal

Vintage Silver Plate Paste Brooch antique_heart_locket which was how it wasBursting with charm, this lovely brooch features a line of round cut paste stones. We love the buttercup setting and the over sized, shiny paste, which is mounted in silver plate with a closed back. With this brooch, we can see why at one time paste was considered by some to be superior even to diamonds. It has a secure trombone clasp on the back, ensuring that the brooch stays securely closed and in place. Brooches add the perfect touch of elegance
