Spectacular Schreiner brooch in silvertone metal with layers of fabulous large and small glass stones. 1960s, unsigned but with characteristic Schreiner

silvertone metal with huge marbled mauve pink glass stones, and huge pale violet blue molded glass leaf form stones. Many Schreiner pieces

be shown or sold as accessories to the designer's couture clothing collecti...
