Title: Vintage Dragon's Breath Brooch – Mexican Fire Opal Glass Cabochon – Maple Leaf Wreath Silver Pin
Description: Fiery and mesmerizing – a true Dragon's Breath beauty!

This stunning vintage brooch features a gorgeous Dragon's Breath stone – the highly sought-after Mexican fire opal glass that collectors hunt for! Also known as Mexican opal glass, this special stone glows with a molten base of red, pink, and coral, erupting into flashes of electric blue and violet as it catches the light – just like a dragon breathing fire! The color play is absolutely captivating in person and photos simply can't do it justice.

The domed cabochon is securely held in claw prongs and framed by a charming wreath of maple leaves, giving this piece wonderful autumn charm (and a possible Canadian connection!). The silver-tone metal has developed a rich, dark patina over the decades, adding to its antique character and making the fiery stone pop even more.

The open-back bezel on the reverse showcases the reflective backing of the stone, and the traditional C-clasp closure dates this piece to the early-to-mid 20th century.
