I did some research on this brooch and found that though it looks much like a Walter Lampl piece, it is in reality a Carl-Art ( has the CA mark with an arrow through it. It is also marked 12K GOLD, and doesn't say "Gold Filled" , but all the other pieces I saw were gold filled, so I am assuming this is too. It measures 2" long and is in excellent condition. ( It is slightly tarnished but I will clean it before sending.) Thanks for shopping at the Cats Pajamas! CONDITION: All items are sold as is and leave from a smoke-free, pet-free environment.
