This delightful figural brooch was created in c.1920 by the German high quality costume jewellery maker, Knoll and Pregizer.

Condition Report:

Good - The 'C' catch and fastening pin are most likely a later replacement to the piece. However, they work well and are in-keeping with the design. There is a tiny element of enamel loss to the tip of one wing. This is only visible upon close inspection and does not detract from the appeal of the piece.
