This brooch is unique for its full size, quality of the coral and the detail in the carving. My guess is that the brooch is Japanese. The backing to the brooch is well made and dates to the 1930\'s - 40\'s, I\'m not sure if the coral carving is older and was made into a brooch at that time - or if the coral was carved in the 1930\'s - 40\'s. The color is extremely dense and consistent across the piece with just a little bit of swirling of darker and lighter colors that are visible upon very close inspection. There is a hole at the bottom left side of the brooch - I\'m not sure if this is evidence that the coral was used for something else at one point or if this is from wear or damage at a later time. There are no other cracks or chips to the coral, the petals are completely intact and the surface is smooth and gleaming. Overall this is a finely carved and colorful, natural carved coral brooch, that is likely to be Japanese made and is in Very good condition.
