Dragon Brooch & Pendant Marked MMA from the Metropolitan Museum of Art

This Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMA) pin/pendant is a miniature version of the dragon shaped handles on a Chinese bronze vessel. Their adaptation is cast in beryllium copper and surfaced with 24 KT gold electroplate. There is a large bail on the back top of the pin so you have the option to wear it on a thicker chain. The dragon is stamped on the back with the initials MMA.
