The Tree of Life

A piece brought back from Italy in the mid-1940s. This pin is a one-inch circle in diameter. A tree, encrusted with pearls on its branches, is surrounded by a scrolled design of gold. 14K gold. The tree is believed to bring good luck and longevity to its owner. A solid, heavier pin, weighing in at 6.5 grams. This was one of my mother’s all-time favorites. Appraised at $550.00.
