This is a cold enamel Cornflower 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 and this is the petite smaller 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 Cornflower Brooch is the pin for September. It has a gold tone finish and has the classic "bow" tied around the bunch of flowers which features on all these designer pins. It is in good order with just a little bit of colour missing from one of the cornflowers but I think this is exactly as it was originally painted and it doesn't detract from the appeal or wearability of the brooch. What a great gift for anyone who has a September Birthday or just because you like it! Approximate measurements are 2 inches by 1.75 inches. This vintage flower brooch has the 'Exquisite' signature on the back. This cornflower pin fastens with a rollover type clasp.
