His use of light and dark is considered some of the finest silver work produced in Mexico and as is evident in this brooch, the antiqued blackened patina that develops over time only serves to highlight the complexity of how his designs were executed.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brooch features a heavy twisted rope border framing a large deer inside the letter Q surrounded by climbing vines and leaves. It closes with a simple hook and a more recent safety pin is attached to keep it in place. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 5cm long and 5cm wide\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 19.5g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHallmark: The initials FD, Silver, Mexico\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSKU: VIN003\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Mexican Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56895598297466,"sku":"VIN003","price":195.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2405\/2681\/files\/vin003-01.jpg?v=1779112029","url":"https:\/\/themexicancollection.co.uk\/products\/vin003-antique-fred-davis-mexican-sterling-silver-brooch-pin","provider":"The Mexican Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
