Faux Ruby and Iridescent Crystal Brooch

NWS 3-1086

~ No wall flower here!  This magnificent brooch packs a punch of color, with the deep, delicious apple red of fall at in the center, in a round, faceted crystal; if you hold it up to the light, all those facets create a kaleidoscopic effect, so imagine what it would do on your lapel

~ The outer "ring" is formed by faceted, faux rubies: 18 marquis-cut crystals, like petals skirting a flower head

~ The brooch measures 2 1/8" wide

~ All stones are prong-set in gold tone metal
