Wonderful find! This is an original R. Mandle piece of jewelry and is signed! Made in Providence, RI and is a hard to find piece! This circus horse head brooch is quite ornate. There are many, very similar horse head pins online and most of them made by Gemcraft who bought the molds when the R. Mandel company closed, but those Gemcraft pins are not quite as fancy -especially look at the top of the horses’ heads! This pin is really nice and the only thing is that there are some of those tiny white rhinestones missing. I took close up enough pictures. You should be able to see where there are missing stones. Please view all of the pictures and please ask any questions prior to bidding on this item. Please note if your feedback is under 50 -Do Not Place a bid without contacting me first. I seem to have a problem with people bidding on items and then changing their mind and not following through with buying the item when they have won the auction. And it is usually people with low feedback- Sorry to say. I reserve the right to cancel any bids that I deem are not going to follow through with the purchase. Thank you for your understanding. Ebay has very strict guidelines and if you place a bid, it is considered a commitment to buy the item should you win the auction. Thank you.
