Vintage Spanish Damascene Brooch, Gold Inlay Bird Flower Pin, Filigree Frame

This elegant vintage Spanish Damascene brooch features a finely detailed filigree frame surrounding a striking black background inlaid with a beautiful gold bird and flower design. Authentic Damascene jewelry, like this piece, is distinguished by its craftsmanship—the center plaque is set securely with prongs, and the intricate gold inlay design is pressed into the blackened steel. This mid-century brooch reflects the artistry of traditional Damascening, an ancient technique of inlaying precious metals into darkened metal to create ornate patterns. Perfect for a collector of vintage jewelry or as a thoughtful gift for someone who loves timeless accessories, this brooch embodies the classic charm of the 1950s.
