Marvelous Mid Century Beauty! Wonderful, rare CORO STERLING brooch from the mid to late 1940s.

The brooch is a stylized winged insect (most likely a dragonfly or moth) with large filigree wings. Large, colorful glass stones, accented with smaller clear rhinestones. The Sterling Silver has a lovely rose Gold Vermeil finish. So striking and a fabulous addition to any vintage collection!
