An Exquisite Brooch - Small Lucky White Heather with Bow and Faux Amethyst
Here we have a very nice little Lucky White Heather pin. It is finished in gold tone with green cold enamel for the Heather stems and white cold enamel for the tips. This vintage brooch is from the famous 'Exquisite' jewellery Company. It is one of the Scottish Souvenir range , made in Birmingham in the 1960's by W.A.P.Watson but retailed through their Hope Street, Glasgow outlet and marketed throughout Scotland in the 1960's and 1970's. Measuring 1.5inches by a little over an inch this brooch is one of the smaller sized versions. The white heather is shown as five separate fronds on green stems. Both the white tips and the green were cold enamelled by hand. The classic Exquisite bow features here with a little glass purple stone, an imitation amethyst. The brooch is signed 'Exquisite' on the reverse with the letters REGD showing it was a registered and protected design and it fastens with a secure roll over type clasp.
