I received this as a souvenir from my grandmother when I was young and have kept it stored in a dark place. Although I haven't used it as a brooch, there is some dirt on the back (see image 2). Therefore, the condition is listed as "has some scratches and dirt." It's a cute blue cat brooch. Would be great as an accent on your clothes or for your collection! I will wrap it in bubble wrap and ship it in simple packaging.
