1960's Signed Exquisite Violet Brooch on Original Display Card (SOLD)

Still on its original padded display card with the wording 'An Exquisite Creation' and 'Violet' 'March' 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. With this lovely bunch of violets they look as if they have just been picked! Because these pieces were hand finished, you get marked variations in the colours.  This one has mint green leaves and a good even toned pinky mauve on the flowers  and buds too. 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.
