Ann Hand Vintage U.S. Air Force 5 Star 18K Sterling Silver w/Faux Pearl Brooch

Ann Hand Vintage U.S. Air Force Brooch 18K plating over Sterling Silver w/Faux Pearl Brooch comes with a brooch-to-pendant converter. You need only slip a chain through it to wear as a necklace. If you need a chain please message me. I have several that would look very nice. This is a very gently used brooch. All materials are in excellent condition. The only flaw of note is a slight spot on the backside of the faux pearl. I am not positive about when, it may have always had this flaw, it could be a manufacturing flaw. It cannot be seen from the front. Perfect gift for Air Force graduation, enlistment, promotion or retirement. For proud Air Force Mom, wife, or graduate. Made in bronze with 18k gold plating, set with blue sapphire-colored crystals and a single faux 14mm pearl. Brooch measures 1 3/4" x 1". From her website: "grace, speed and precision of the world's most incredible Air Force-feared by enemies, counted on by friends, matched by no one. The wings gain their power and sustain their endurance from the Air Force family represented by the beautiful silver laurel. The pearl portrays integrity, service and excellence-the pure character of our Air Force. The stars represent the many places around the world where Air Force families make their home. Finally, the rings and rose portray the beauty and character of the Air Force family. They are soft and gentle to reflect love and support-yet they are also incredibly strong for they hold the entire emblem together." 1124
