This is a vintage hair barette/brooch in silvertone or platinum with diamonds and a large pearl inthe center. It actually sits in front of the face, rather than on it so it will work with a larger selection of hair styles. ***Note: May not work with large bangs or super poofy hair, so try before you buy*** This is a great way to add some glam to your outfit, add a vintage retro touch, or just make your outfit stand apart from the crowd. Beautiful and elegant, very sophisticated.....
