Antique Victorian Sterling Silver Portrait Brooch hand tinted photograph French

Antique Victorian Sterling Silver Portrait Brooch, hand tinted photograph French. A very charming antique brooch made of sterling silver engraved frame, tinted photograph, crystal, mother of pearl back and long needle. There is a very faint discoloration of the background in the right-hand side, which is visible in pictures. Not so visible in person.

It measures 2 inches long, 1-1/8 inch wide. It is made in France. And reflects the Victorian French fashion. Note the lace head piece.
