1960's Flower Brooch signed Exquisite ( Large Violet - Soft Colours) SOLD
This is a cold enamel Violet pin by Exquisite Jewellery Ltd., of Solihull, Warwickshire, England. It was one of their range of Birthday Flower Brooches introduced and extremely popular during the 1960's. These pins came in two sizes with a flower for every month of the year! This is the larger sized one! The Company also had a range of Leaf pins and matching earrings, as well as many other lines in quality costume jewellery. The Violet Brooch is the pin for March . It has a silvery gold tone finish and has the classic "bow" tied around the bunch of flowers which features on many of these designer pins. Because these pieces were hand finished, you get marked variations in the colours. This one has the palest tones of a soft grey green with a light two-tone violet and softer mauve on the flowers themselves. It is in good vintage condition. What a great gift for anyone who has a March Birthday or just because you like it! Approximate measurements are 6.5cms (2.5ins) by 4cms (1.5ins). This item fastens with a rollover type clasp.
