Vintage Southwestern Sterling Turquoise Brooch, Branch/Leaves, 2" Long, signed

$ 45.00

Vintage Southwestern Sterling Leaf Brooch, each leave is inlaid with bezel set turquoise that I believe is a created or imitation turquoise - it is not glass but more likely resin or a heavy plastic.  It is a sterling branch, tested.   It is signed with a 3 inside what looks like a floral frame - perhaps  tulip design.  It is signed on the tip of the backside of the stem.  It is 2" long and about 3/4" wide.  Very nice basic simplistic yet appealing design.  Weight is 4.23grams.   Very good condition other than the patina/tarnish that could be cleaned if desired.   This came from a PA estate. See photos.   Lot. Loc. W.9.23-10.2117G1.6 - LD 11/30/17).  

We carry mostly vintage jewelry across all themes in my stores and listings. We have our own store and are and have been known as  stampshopgirl in Ebay and have been since I think 2003.  At one point we had a gift shop/rubber stamping store and switched over to vintage jewelry about six years ago on a full time basis, which also including taking and completing gemology classes as well as jewelry appraisal studies. We carry limited other vintage items and am trying to change our presence to marias vintage and estate treasures.  You may see both names until the migration is complete. 

Thank you for stopping by,  mariasvintage.

 



Please note that most of my photos are taken at 10X magnification. This shows any blemishes much more magnified than they really are.

I keep great notes about each item and can answer most questions quickly, but I do not store fine jewelry on premises, so answers about specific measurements may take some time as I arrange to inspect the piece again.

In addition to this website, Maria's Vintage, I am on eBay as stampshopgirl, on Etsy as stampshopgirl, and on StorEnvy as Maria's. I have many vintage jewelry items and other vintage and new items - a very wide variety.

I will combine shipping, even if you buy items from one of my other stores. If you purchase one item and know you’ll be picking more, just email me and let me know and I will ship them at the same time and refund the shipping over the combined limit.

Given the number of different items I carry it is hard to know what combination of items can be purchased to pre-plan the shipping, so just email me and we will work it out to save you shipping charges whenever possible.
