This collection consists of a variety of vintage brooches. The cloisonne butterfly pin by maker Fish is 2.25". The black background of the wings stands out against the gold toned metal, with mauve, rust and green colors highlighting the wings and body. The round 2.5" brooch made of shells has a faux mother of pearl stone in its center, and the pin backing is attached to a Capiz shell. Next at 2.5" is the gold toned tiered flower. The pistils are unconventional with different shapes and colors of rhinestones (one rhinestone missing), and has a maker's mark from BSK. The 2.5" leaf shaped pin has rust colored painted points (some slight paint flakes), and is by maker Gerry's. The patriotic red, white and blue intertwined circle brooch is backed with gold tone metal and is 1.25". The final two pieces are lovely and have a similar art nouveau style. The larger piece at 1.5" has an antiqued brass tone with yellow glass, and the smaller 1.25" brooch has a blackened silver tone with aqua blue stone. All pieces are in good vintage condition, please see all photos for further detail.
