This charming safety pin brooch is decorated with three dangling egg pendants, each set with a cabochon-cut carnelian in a spectacle setting.
The brooch is still housed in its original box, which tells us that it was sold by the firm Lukacs & Arany. Historically, this prestigious firm operated an elite boutique located at the prominent Kärntner Straße in Vienna, which is also advertised on the inside of the box.
