Vintage Spanish Damascene Faux Pearl Wreath Brooch

A striking vintage Spanish damascene brooch featuring an ornate circular wreath design accented with six creamy faux pearls. This piece has an especially beautiful combination of gold, black, and silver-tone detailing, creating incredible depth and contrast throughout the swirling design.
Six raised faux pearls are arranged around the open center, each nestled within a silver-tone paisley-shaped flourish. Intricate blackened scrollwork and gold-tone arabesque detailing fill the surrounding surface, giving the brooch the elaborate Old World appearance associated with Spanish damascene jewelry.
The open-center construction keeps the substantial statement size from feeling overly heavy, while the repeating pearl design gives it an almost celestial or floral appearance.
The reverse is marked SPAIN and features a traditional pin-and-catch closure.
