1940's gold tone race horses brooch. This is an interesting piece because there is a Joseff of Hollywood brooch that is almost identical to it. I am not sure if this one is unsigned or simply an "inspired by" but they are remarkably similar*. One horse is bright gold and the other a more antique gold. The horses are very detailed and you can see the veins in their faces.

*I am including a pic of this brooch side by side with the Joseff of Hollywood for comparison.
