Vintage Crescent Brooch Gold Seed Pearl, c. 1930 victorian bangle it was usually found onThere is a tranquil sort of glamour to a brooch like this, an elegance that doesnt announce itself so much as it drifts into view. Seed pearls glow along the curve in a gentle arc, each one a tiny orb of captured light.
