"Baby" Name Brooch in Sterling Silver, Spectrum Antiques
£75.00
Description
A sentimental late Victorian style "Baby" brooch, hallmarked in the historic city of Chester, 1917. This sterling silver piece features the word "Baby" in raised relief across a central plaque, framed by a delicate rope-twist border and hand-engraved floral forget-me-not motifs.
Finding silver with the sought-after Chester hallmark is increasingly difficult for collectors, as the assay office has been closed for over sixty years. Crafted during the First World War, this brooch serves as a beautiful and well-preserved example of early 20th-century commemorative giftware. It retains its original pin and C-clasp, showing the crisp hallmarks that collectors prize.
