This stunningly beautiful Scottish Ram’s head penannular brooch can be worn a number of ways. This piece was original designed and made by the famous jeweler, John Hart and is signed JH, Iona. This piece is a reproduction of the original.

It's design is from the Celtic Revival period, made famous by Alexander & Euphemia Ritchie who worked on the Scottish Holy Isle of Iona c 1910-40. The ancient rams head zoomorphic design motif is very detailed and ornate, with a solid heavy rotating penannular pin that has a matching rams face on the top.

This piece is cast by lost wax casting and the piece measures 2" (51mm) across the body of the penannular; the pin is a bit longer. It weighs 13 grams and is made from the finest sterling silver.
