This bold and unusual vintage brooch pendant from Maya Mexico is a striking example of mid-century Mexican artistry. Crafted in brass with vivid green enamel, the piece evokes the coiled form of a serpent or dragon, with flowing crimped brass accents along the top and raised detailing throughout. A single green chrysoprase cabochon is set as the creature’s piercing eye, lending depth and mystique to its stylized form.
The back is stamped Maya Mexico, and it features a convertible bail, allowing it to be worn either as a dramatic brooch or an eye-catching pendant. This piece makes a powerful statement, perfect for lovers of mythological, animal-inspired, or bold artisan jewelry.
