{French Vintage Emile Monier Angels Brooch Plated Bronze}

For YOU I found a rare French Vintage Emile Monier (1883-1970) Angels Brooch in Plated Bronze. It is rather large with 3.2 cm or 1.3 inch and it does have the cornucopia hallmark in the back, next to the letters BR, indicating that it is silver over bronze. The perfectly working pin has a unique safety catch. As usual, this piece is available at my Zen Cart powered on line boutique: Mariette's Back to Basics. 
Lovely Angels!
Emile Monier (1883-1970) was a great artist.
His signature on top of the Angels' heads and next to their wings...
Perfect working order pin with unique safety catch.
French Cornucopia (horn of plenty) hallmark with letters BR meaning it is silver over bronze.
Below I show you an identical French vintage silver plated bronze medal from a different artist.
Just came across this one, when doing some research on mine...
Ruby Lane.com
Just click on the above hyperlink for checking out the exact same cornucopia hallmark.
They do list it as being from 1930.
Sorry Sold out...

Does any of you have some silver plated bronze brooches?

    I love this Mariette, beautiful with the angels and the another one is also very pretty. I do not like it only for brooches but I should use it for decoration, for special ocassion.
    Very nice.
