It is a large and luxurious size with a hefty feel to it. The key has beautiful and unique transitional period Edwardian curves combined with pre Art Deco elements, with an impressive crown atop, interspaced by luscious pearls with diamonds. Beneath the crown shows transitional period elements, with step cut citrines in triangles forming a hexagon shape. It is then further decorated with diamonds and citrine along the stem of the key.

There are gorgeous old transitional-brilliant cut diamonds approx. 0.50ct by spread, as well as step cut citrines 1.76ct, with a total weight of 2.26ctw. All stones are original and present, with no missing stones.

This beautiful piece was sourced from Europe, and is likely European in origin.

The brooch opens and closes well, and comes with its original trombone clasp for added security. 

Such keys are highly sought after and highly collectible, making them a very rare find. The brooch also functions perfectly as a pendant, by threading a chain through behind the brooch pin. When worn as a pendant, they key does not twist or flip due to the secure hinged design of the brooch, making it very suitable to be worn as a pendant this way.

This would be considered a large sized key brooch, measuring at 17.4mm x 58.3mm height.

A beautiful antique European key that is in excellent condition and heirloom quality.

It weighs 6.92 grams.
