Simulated Topaz & Diamond Butterfly Brooch

~ This brooch is a beauty! The brooch is a butterfly as seen from its side, a unique and lovely perspective

~ The wings are filled with prong-set, topaz crystals, cut in the marquis shape, and all have been placed in the same direction, going out from the body like rays from the sun, spectacular!

~ Outlining the wings are dozens upon dozens of iridescent, faceted chatons, scattering colors of  peach, lilac, apple green, pale blue, gold and pink

~ All crystals are set in goldtone metal and are in absolutely top-notch condition

~ Also unique are the antennae which are formed from solid strands of goldtone wire, and at each tip has a tiny, faceted, iridescent crystal - fantastic details!

~ Swivel-head safety clasp, in perfect working order
