1960's Vintage Floral Brooch in Orange, Yellow and Gold (SOLD)
Here you have an original vintage costume jewellery brooch in Brand New Unworn Condition. This is a lovely old metal, cold enamelled Flower Pin. It was made in Providence, Rhode Island, USA - an area which has been at the centre of the US jewelry trade since the earliest days of American Vintage Costume Jewellery manufacturing. This is a great example of a 'New Old Stock' piece as it is around 40 years old and has lain in a Warehouse until now. This super pin is a piece from the Swinging Sixties. The cold enamel finish is bright and strong with three layers of petals. The first layer is Bright Yellow in colour and has been dot punched, layer two consists of more dot punched natural petals in an almost fluoresent shade of Orange; Layer three has small daisy effect golden petals around a Yellow button to the very centre. The contrasts between these colours and the different types of petals is most striking. The flower brooch is a good size being 3 inches in diameter! It is finished in two shades of blue on the reverse. The brooch fastens with a 'v' shaped back pin with a secure roll over type clasp. The position of the pin ensures that this brooch will sit well on your coat or jacket lapel or your Hippy Hat without flopping!
