Vintage Basket Purse Brooch‎ Unknown Signed Costume Jewelry

Charming vintage gold-tone brooch shaped like a woven basket purse. Beautifully textured with raised braided detailing and a polished finish. The back features an etched pattern and a small maker's mark stamp.  There is some gold-tone loss on two of the front basket straps see photos for close-up detail.  Details: • Gold-tone metal • Woven basket / purse design • Textured front with braided handle • Signed on the back, maker unknown (see photo) • Approx. 2 1/2x 2 • Standard pin-back closure • Quarter shown for scale • Light surface wear consistent with age • Gold-tone loss on two front straps (photographed)  I give all of my pieces a gentle wipe down but do not deep clean, as many collectors prefer to preserve the natural patina and finish. Please review photos closely for the best idea of condition.
