Art Deco Diamond & Ruby Arrow Brooch platinum Queen Victorian wrote to GeneralDATE: Art Deco, c. 1920 An impeccably crafted antique arrow brooch dating from the Art Deco era, circa 1920. More petit than these usually are, and with conventional brooch fittings as opposed to a detachable jabot pin end, it's a somewhat unusual example. Set with diamonds and rubies and crafted in 18k white gold with platinum settings. Hilariously, some joker has scratched the word "Cartier" onto the back of the shaft MEASUREMENTS 4. 0 x 0. 9cm
