Fin de Siecle romantic softness rendered in gilt silver and paste. Less-precious materials meant that the wearer could sparkle and shine without breaking the bank; a diamond and solid gold version would have been available only to the gilded aristocracy. Fasten it at the temples with two bobby pins or use a ribbon to connect the loops. 

MATERIALS: gilt silver, paste

AGE: c. 1880

CONDITION: VERY GOOD

SIZE: 5" x 1 1/2" frontispiece, 8" curved frame
