Antique Asian brooch dating from the 1920s. Handcrafted in brass with pieces of inlaid coral (some red) and turquoise portraying a meditating man. His face shows carved features. Some of the stones are crudely cut. If examined under a loupe, I saw one very small chip on one of the red coral pieces.
The brooch has the original hand made brass C clasp on the back. The pin fastens loosly so care should be taken when wearing. Unsigned.
Measures 2 5/8" wide and 2" high. Item is available at our Ruby Lane Shop: Anitque Tibetan Red Coral and Turquoise Brooch
