Very Good Original Antique ConditionAn antique Whitby polished jet brooch' carved into a ribbon / knot design. Very wearable as it very stylish and not at all 'in mourning' or old fashioned looking. The brooch measures around 6cms across by 5cms wide. The front has some very faint age related light scratching which is barely noticeable. The back has a couple of chips as jet can be brittle to work with but as they are on the back they don't show when worn. There appears to be a name or some words scratched into the back but I can't read what they say!The pin is a simple 'C' mechanism (brass I think) with quite a tight opening but I haven't touched it to make it any wider as it still works. The pin wobbles around quite a bit and may at some point have been replaced but once worn it is nice and secure.
