Prince Albert proposed to Queen Victoria with a snake ring. It renewed an interest in an already popular design.
Here, the snake is curling on himself in a sign of eternity and love.
He’s beautifully made with detailed silver plated base metal. This brooch feels quite substantial, and brilliantly made. This is a wonderful love token!
This brooch can be worn as a brooch or flip it upside down to clip it a clasp as a pendant, so versatile!
The overall condition is amazing, there are no damages or repairs. This snake brooch must have been adored and cherished, it is in amazing condition! The pin is very straight, and it is functioning very well. There is normal wear to this pin with light surface scratches.
There are slight patina and has not been professionally cleaned. I leave this up to the new owner. I have only gently wiped with soft jewelry cleaning cloth.
Mark(s): None, tested as silver plate.
