This exquisite brooch depicts a classic Venetian gondola, meticulously crafted with a silver-tone metal base and adorned with sparkling marcasite stones. The gondola’s detailed design captures the elegance of this iconic vessel, with intricate detailing throughout. This piece is a beautiful example of vintage costume jewellery, likely dating from the mid-20th century, and showcases the craftsmanship of the era.

This brooch presents in good vintage condition, with the marcasite stones securely set and displaying their characteristic shimmer.
