A delicate silver-plated devotional bar brooch centred with an oval portrait of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, preserved beneath glass and secured by four small tabs.

The portrait is flanked by slender openwork shoulders embellished with finely engraved beading and scrolling motifs, continuing into elongated bars with softly rounded terminals. Dating from the decade of her beatification and canonisation, the brooch combines intimate religious devotion with the graceful linear design of 1920s jewellery.
The entire pin measures 6,5 x 1,8 cm and features a safety catch to secure the pin in place
In perfect vintage condition. No major dents or scratches. Fully cleaned, and ready to wear!
