Lovely and unusual hand made Arts & Crafts Brooch c.1910; made in Silver (unmarked but tested as Sterling) with blue enamel decoration, depicting a Sunflower with the phrase 'Ad Astra' (to the stars). Rope twist border, reminiscent of the jewellery made by Edward Spencer at the Artificer's Guild, among others, in this period. The Brooch measures 3.5cm diameter.
The brooch is in very good condition with no damage or repairs; it looks like th...ere is a small impressed mark on the back, but it is unreadable.
