I love how meticulously this was made into a brooch (though the jeweller left the original buckle’s prongs). Because of the careful conversion, it could still be worn as a buckle or as a choker with ribbon threader through. Not sure where this was made, as the markings are .925 and what looks like a lyre. So, not likely French or British, but continental silver. Available at www.intotemptation.com.
