Antique 15ct Gold Diamond Exquisite Bar Brooch Pin C1870 Heavy 5g

It is so nice to see that brooches are increasing in popularity as they are one of the most versatile pieces of jewellery you could have. Nowadays they are used to adorn both men's and women's outfits - see Tulsa King for men wearing brooches. A bar brooch like this could be worn on so many pieces of clothing providing a patriotic statement or even as a unique hanger for your OBE (as shown).

I do not use professional photographers (you'd just have to pay more if I did) and do not photoshop or enhance pictures in any way. I simply take macro pictures in a homemade lightbox to provide the most honest portrayal possible. I clean lightly before snapping but do not polish to "as new" though this can obviously be done. It is only my opinion but I feel antique items that are polished too much lose some of the character. I will always note any faults and will always answer honestly when asked regarding any imperfections.
