    Description

    I'm not sure of the metal, could be pewter or could be sterling, I only see the MMA stamp on it. I am reducing price because of my uncertainty. That said, this piece is magnificent, can
    accommodate
    a belt with a width of 1 1/4"
    Large Vintage Art Nouveau design. Stunning floral motifs frame woman in profile, right facing. About 62 grams on my scale and measures about 2 1/2"  x  2 1/2" . This is a really rare piece, it may be one of a kind as original owner's father was a metal caster for this company, until his retirement about 20 years ago (he's still alive and 91 years old)
    5/18/2020: A very astute ebayer asked about the "dot"  near the woman's nose (about 2mm to the right). It appears to be a tiny indentation, not damage or a hole or a nick, probably something that was in the casting when this was made. It's literally the size of a pinhead, I couldn't find it at first then grabbed my loupe.
