Condition Report
The brooch is in overall fair/poor condition. The brooch appears to be Victorian and has been altered at a later date, it appears disproportionate in shape and should possibly been worn facing the other way. Some of the grape detail has been possibly added, the catch has been added at a later date, there are scratches and areas of discolouration to the back of the brooch. The dropper is heavily discoloured with possible repair to the back, the back pin is metal. The end to the safety chain is missing.
