14K Gold Sapphire Pearl World War ll "V" Victory Pin
Extraordinary patriotic World War II era “V for Victory” brooch in 14K yellow gold set with sapphires and pearls.

The pin is set with blue sapphire (likely Montana origin), including a blue-to-purple color change sapphire at the hinge. The pinstem and clasp could be removed for conversion to a V-shaped or bar-shaped pendant. Stamped with an unknown maker's mark "A14K" and "Pat Pend”. Origin: America, 1940-45 Condition: excellent Dimensions: 1-13/16” x 1-13/16” in the “V” formation; 3-1/2” x 1/4" in bar formation Weight: 7.0 grams Approximate Total Gemstone Weight: sapphire, 2.81 carats
