Vintage Pavé Snake Brooch with Green & Clear Crystals – Statement Piece)

A striking vintage snake brooch, beautifully formed in a looping, sinuous design and set throughout with sparkling pavé crystals.

The body of the snake is encrusted with clear crystals, while the head and inner curve are picked out in deep olive-green stones, giving the piece depth, contrast and a subtle jewel-tone glow. The stones catch the light exceptionally well, creating a lively shimmer across the surface.

Finished in a gold-tone metal, the brooch has a reassuring weight and a well-constructed pin fastening to the reverse. The sculptural shape makes it an eye-catching statement on a jacket lapel, scarf, knitwear or evening outfit.

A classic vintage motif that works equally well styled boldly or as a refined accent.
