ALEXIS BITTAR ITEMS ARE HANDMADE, SO IT IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND A "PERFECT" PIECE OF HIS JEWELRY. ANOMALIES CAN INCLUDE SLIGHTLY CROOKED STONE SETTINGS, STONES OF DIFFERENT HEIGHTS, GLUE MARKS, SCUFFS ON THE FINISH COATING THE BACKS, MARKS/GOUGES/SCRAPES ON THE STONES, METAL AREAS ETC.

*Per ebay policy, photos are part of the description. If you need additional photos, I am more than happy to provide them upon request.

This Chrysanthemum articulating brooch pin was made by Alexis Bittar. The lucite is yellow-green in the center, fading to blue at the edges. The metalwork is goldtone, and there are faux pearls clustered in the center.

There are no missing petals. Because the petals articulate, it can appear in some photos that there are gaps between the petals, depending on the position.

However, I have shown in the last photo this pin compared with another nearly identical pin that I also have. You can see from the photo that both pins have the same number of petals. This listing is only for the brooch shown on the right, indicated by the pink arrows.

It measures about 4” across its widest point.

As with virtually all of Alexis Bittar's handmade lucite jewelry, there may be occasional tiny whitish marks at various places on the lucite. There may also be minor pitting and/or other irregularities on the finish as well as minute scratches on the metal hardware.

As per Alexis Bittar, these occur naturally during the manufacturing process and as such are not considered defects.

Of note, there is minor tarnishing on the back. No significant issues or defects noted.
