McCLELLAND BARCLAY Sterling Silver Repoussé Art Deco Lilies Brooch, no back

This bouquet of lilies in this vintage sterling silver brooch have a very Art Deco look. The silver has been hammered from behind into the shape of the flowers, using a technique known as repoussé, often found in quality handmade Mexican jewellery. The brooch is open-backed, allowing us to see the repoussé work. A similar design can be found in this sterling silver lilies brooch with a beaded frame.
