Description: HUGE UNGER BROS ART NOUVEAU STERLING SILVER BROOCH CHILLY CUPIDS c.1900 SUPERB!!. Pictures tell the whole story. HUGE! Over 3.” We call them brooches nowadays but during the period they were the type worn at the waist in lieu of a buckle to secure lace and other fabric belts. That is why they were often formed with a softly rounded shape, in order to accommodate a woman’s mid-section without causing discomfort. Those designers at UB thought of everything! However, this piece has a much less pronounced curve, to the point that it is almost flat. Obviously, it was up to the individual silversmith to decide the extent of the curve when executing each piece. Outstanding workmanship as to be expected from Unger Bros. Condition is excellent with scarcely any age-related wear. Please enlarge the many images provided to confirm condition. Fabulous warm patina with delicious tarnish in the crevices. The patina is just the way collectors desire. Original c-clasp is tight and holds securely. All I can say is “WOW!”HAPPY TO COMBINE SHIPPING
