Description: Great Britain: Scottish Clan Brooch by John Hart and Iona. Unique Scottish clan brooch with the slogan, “DUBITANTE AD ASTRA” (‘Hesitant to the Stars’). The center of the brooch depicts what appears to be an earthworm; the combination of the slogan and the earthworm suggests that this brooch may have been made for a satirical purpose. The reverse side of the brooch is engraved, “OLIVIA 1962,” probably the intended recipient and the year it was given. The reverse also contains various hallmarks: “IONA/SCOTLAND/SILVER” and the monogram “JH.” The JH hallmark refers to John Hart, a noted silversmith with the Scottish firm of Iona. The brooch is of exquisite quality and in extremely fine condition. Authenticity guaranteed; 14-day return privilege (30 days overseas), excluding postage, provided item is returned in same condition when sold. Item will be shipped USPS First Class Mail; will combine postage for multiple purchases.
