This is a cold enamel painted Red Rose 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 harder to find smaller sized version. The Company also had a range of Leaf pins and matching earrings, as well as many other lines in quality costume jewellery. The Rose Brooch is the pin for June and it can be found in a variety of colours and shades . This vintage brooch is the classic 'Red Rose'. It has a large open soft red rose flower and a rosebud and very pale green leaves. The brooch 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 excellent vintage condition. What a great gift for anyone who has a June Birthday, is named 'Rose' or has a love of roses. Approximate measurements are 2.25 inches by 1.5ins. This item fastens with a rollover type clasp and has the designed brand signature 'Exquisite' at the top of the rose pin on the reverse.
