A wonderfully charming vintage snowman brooch, crafted with the kind of meticulous detail that elevates a whimsical subject into a genuinely fine piece of jewellery. Two lustrous cultured pearls form his rotund body, set upon a platinum base beneath a diamond-adorned top hat. Warm 18ct yellow gold details — his carrot nose, coat buttons, and broom bristles — contrast beautifully against the cool platinum of his broom handle, creating a delightful interplay of materials and colour.

Secured by a double pin clasp with string tension for confident, all-day wear. A piece that brings genuine joy — equally at home on a winter coat lapel, as a Christmas gift, or as a treasured addition to a collection of fine novelty jewellery.
