I do not have this brooch in my treasured CIRO book on jewellery, but have learned that CIRO only used round Zircons, that all Baguette stones were made of paste, so I believe this brooch to be Zircon & paste, for this clip was part of CIRO’s’luxury’ range of jewellery & they only used Zircons in their luxury jewellery pieces. With a clear nod to ancient China, the fabulous stylised geometric design a stunning take on the embroidered panels seen decorating the robes of royalty in an age long gone & looks astonishing, I have taken photos in both daylight & under artificial light to show that this looks as good in daylight as in the evening. With lovely workmanship, as much care going into finishing off the back as to the front. I have been collecting Duet or Double clips for years & have rarely seen a better example. I keep loosing count, but there are at least 80 Zircons. To each half, I have gone over this with a toothcomb & there are only 2 stones which have any nibbles, the only one worth mentioning is slight damage to one of the longer baguette. Stones in the center, where it has come in contact with its partner on the other clip. This is completely invisible to the eye. There is also slight wear to the rhodium plate around the outer edges & the underside skeleton of the brooch, again, only mentioned for accuracy, when polished it is invisible. Clearly hand finished throughout, with sublime workmanship, the clips lovely & tight, with the rarer “slider” pin, women loved these clips because you could remove a clip from the brooch, & thread a ribbon through the back of the clip, under the bar and transform the clip to a pendant, it measures exactly 6.5. Across the width & 3.8cm (1.4) deep, & weighs around gms. You can clearly read CIROs stamp CP to both backs of the clips, & PAT. DFOR to the back of the pin. This is fit for the serious Deco / Retro jewellery collector. The pin having a flip-over safety catch, not sure if the pin is silver (they rarely are being that silver is too soft). (I recommend you measure against other brooches you own to give an idea as to the size). CIRO vintage solid silver rhodium plated & paste brooch / Duet clip. 6.5cm (2.4). Original Box / caja?
