Walter Lampl Gold Filled Blue Zircon Flower Brooch
This large, lovely, Retro Modern brooch is thickly plated with yellow gold. It is accented by 2 collet-set, faceted, light blue semiprecious gemstones, each measuring 6 mm. in diameter.

The bold, fluid lines of the flower, leaves, and scrollwork are elegant and timeless. Marked WL 1/20 12K G.F. Safety clasp holds securely.
Measures 2-1/2 x 3 inches.
Excellent vintage condition of brooch, stones, and plating. Pin stem has been bent.
