DESCRIPTION
A gold-tone figural brooch of a jester or clown caught mid-stride, balancing an oversized parasol above his head. Glossy purple trousers, a split green-and-yellow jacket, tiny gold-tone shoes and a textured brimmed hat give him theatrical dimension, and the parasol edge is set with alternating purple, green and golden-yellow glass-like stones beneath curling enamel ribbons.
