This piece is a hand-painted porcelain portrait brooch, most likely French or Italian, dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. The artist’s signature “J. Pero” appears on the front. The subject is a romanticized 18th/19th-century woman with pearls and ringlets — common in Victorian and Edwardian decorative pieces. Likely made 1880–1930, with many similar signed pieces emerging in the Edwardian revival era (1900s–1920s)
