Antique "Depose" Sterling French Paste Duette Brooch

This is Absolutely Stunning! c. 1920-30s. Signed... "Depose" also signed... "Made in France" (three times). There is not a silver mark but this is guaranteed to test as sterling silver, and is most likely a higher purity of silver like that of "935" which was most commonly used in France at this period. Depicting a Absolutely Gorgeous Paste (Glass) Stone Duette brooch that looks Exactly like Diamonds! Done in thick silver with Brilliant pastes throughout on a Floral & Foliage pierced through foundation. Made as two dress clips that can be worn separately or connected together and worn as a brooch. Measures a Large 2 3/8 inches wide. The whole duette is in Absolutely Excellent (perfect) Vintage condition with no missing paste stones, and no dead or dark paste stones, the silver has all of it's Original patina throughout giving this a dramatic real diamond look. Comes equipped with a trombone or tube barrel clasp. We have not had a nicer paste piece of this type before. It is Wonderful! Thanks George Evelyn & John @ Jivin Jewels
