A breathtakingly dimensional vintage Juliana statement brooch, measuring an impressive 3.9 inches across and rising approximately 1.9 inches from its base. Deep ruby-red, high-domed Lucite cabochons radiate around a large domed center, with brilliant red rhinestones and sweeping double rows of twisted gold-tone wire creating a dramatic, sculptural starburst.
From overhead, the brooch presents a bold radial design; from the side, its extraordinary height and layered construction become the star of the show. Gold-tone cast elements and glittering red rhinestone accents complete the design.
