Description
A lovely and unusual item of George V silver, made by the great Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co. This charming piece would have been worn on special occasions, such as weddings and would have contained a single bloom as a 'buttonhole'. The cylindrical shaped body is worn on the lapel and the hinged claw supports it from behind. A delightful gift idea for a big day and a lovely keepsake.
