Description:
- Gold-plated metal clasp-brooch with a cat at one end and a mouse at the other.
- Very nice and rare, we could say that it is a brooch with the cat and the mouse as decorative element.
- Curious clasp, where the cat has two small green stones as eyes, while, at the other end of the chain, it is a small mouse that has a purple stone as an eye, the other one is lost.
- We don't know exactly what it is, but we think it may be a brooch or clasp, once used for cardigans and jackets.
- Each end was placed in a buttonhole on each side of the jacket, leaving the chain hanging in the middle, and the ends as decorative.
