  • Condition: In good vintage condition with age related surface wear and discoloration. The back shows most of the wear, but the front looks like it needs polishing, I did not attempt it because I don't know if it is coated. It is shinier gold brass than the pictures read, but there is some haziness. Overall the shape looks good--it is cut out and hammered convex and smooth. Very reflective and hard to photograph. Vintage from Paris, France. Chic and wearable.

    Signed : FABRICE,  Paris, Made in France
    Hand hammered in brass, this statement piece is very collectible as a vintage piece from (I believe) the 1970s
    or a chic, wearable accessory.  The pin works perfectly.  There is wear in the form of light surface scratching and discoloration,
    with more on the back than the front.  I have not attempted to polish this and I think it would benefit from it, but I leave that to the buyer.
    It is curved and hammered and very reflective, so difficult to photograph, looking better in person.
    I like this shape and size and even the color.  An intriguing statement piece, evoking a comet or a claw or an abstract tulip...
    Please see photos to assess vintage condition.  Thank you for looking.
