Shappere and Co

Here is a wonderful antique "Australia" brooch set with a kookaburra made by one of Australia's most famous early jewellers, Duggin, Shappere & Co in the early 1900's. Measuring 5.5cm in length and made in 9 carat gold, the brooch is set with fifteen seed pearls with an additional seed pearl in the kookaburra's eye. The kookaburra has so much charm and character as does the font itself of the word "Australia". Fitted with a safety chain for added security, this is such an amazing antique brooch that is as Aussie as it gets.   Stock# ES8879 Maker: Duggin, Shappere & Co Circa: 1910 $Sold
