It's a rich piece of estate jewelry and I see no reason why a man couldn't wear this in some way. If you check the photos at the end you will see many ideas for brooch-wearing men, along with edgy places for women to wear a brooch.

Look for fine jewelry details in this women's 40s vintage 12K gold & sterling silver gemstone brooch pin with genuine gemstones, like pearl, onyx, lapis, chrysoprase and carnelian. 1940s vintage Symmetalic, a company known for mixing sterling silver and gold with quality gemstones. Not gold-plated! 12K gold in front and sterling silver in back. Closes with safety catch (patented 1937). See photo 3 to get idea of size. Will come in a gift box. A "GREEN GIFT"? Yes it is because giving vintage is another way of recycling. CONDITION: no flaws, all stones present.
