LEA STEIN BROOCH - DRAGON - GREEN & RED

This is a Lea Stein dragon brooch - in red and green - I like my dragons to be this colour although they are made in lots of other colours.  This one has a green body and red decoration. It has a golden yellow sparkley fire coming out of the mouth.  It measure about 3 1/4 x 2 1/2 inches.  It is a genuine Lea Stein - I do not sell the copies - and has the correct Lea Stein Paris on the pin. It is £65.  I have a number of Lea Stein brooches on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com and even more in my shop at Alfies Antiques in central London.  Ref: 3380 D54/12

ART DECO CRESS CLIP - GREEN & SILVER GLASS

This is an Art Deco dress clip.  It is made of glass and has a white metal clip at the back.  This was made to clip onto an article of clothing.  Pairs could be bought for square neck dresses. Single ones could be worn on a V neck, jacket lapel - or anywhere it would clip!  I clip mine over a chain and wear as a pendant necklace.  This one is on a Deco Green glass with silver glass edge.  It measures nearly 2 1/4 inches.  Reference 3379 D53/2e

CADORO - THE LION RAMPANT - LARGE GOLD TONE BROOCH

This is the Cadoro vintage Scottish Lion Rampant brooch.  It is in a gold wash and is very large.  The Cadoro company were making jewellery in Manhattan between 1954 and 1987.  This is probably later rather than earlier.  It has a hook so it can be worn on a chain as a pendant.  The colour is a little lighter than in the photo - I could not get the colour right!  It measures about 4 inches x 2 3/4 inches and is in good condition.  It is marked Cadoro on the back.  Ref: 3378
