A substantial and well-made bow brooch in 800 silver, dating to the 1930s–1940s and consistent with Central European — likely German or Austrian — silversmithing of the Art Deco to early post-war period. The brooch is formed as a bold, geometric ribbon bow with flat, angular wings and a square-cut central knot, reflecting the clean, architectural sensibility of the era.
The reverse bears two hallmarks: an 800 purity mark and an assay or maker's cartouche, confirming the silver content. The rollover pin-back fastener is intact and functional.
Please note: there is evidence of a solder repair at the central knot, consistent with age and prior use. This does not affect wearability and is reflected in the price.
