303 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A large and striking silver lizard brooch set with a mixture of graded marcasite (iron pyrites) and green rectangular pastes. Lizards were very popular in the 1920s and were worn with the long slinky dresses that were fashionable at the time. Nowadays they are back in fashion and look fabulous on a lapel or a dress.
