This triple-layer "cake" or peaked Austrian brooch has an incredible amount of spark in its cut crystal, unfoiled stones—yes, unfoiled--and they are as brilliant as colored diamonds! The brooch measures 2" in diameter by 1 ¼" high. The lacy "ribbon candy" bands on the edges of the tiers add to the sweetness of the confection. The chatons are a different shade of citrine, topaz, and smoky quartz, are foiled and set closed back. The marquises are topaz and cognac are set open-back and set table-down (as Schreiner often did). Thus, there are five colors of glittering jewels! The center stone is also cognac and set table down which gives a dramatic peak to the brooch.
The reverse shows the solid construction of the piece and the applied "Made in Austria" tag. You will see three looped supports which can be used to slip a chain through and wear the brooch as a pendant! The construction was demanding and the many tiers and stones really give one appreciation of the skill used to make costume jewelry in the past. The brooch has a safety clasp pin and is in excellent condition. The colors are so rich and the reflections are so apparent that they nearly hypnotize you!
