VINTAGE AB RHINESTONE TRIPLET PETALS GOLDTONE FLOWER BROOCH

This is a very dimensional, stacked petals, chunky brooch. The pin-back slightly jiggles from the rivet but is not a problem. There is a single large ab-rhinestone set in the center. 1960s.

VINTAGE LARGE THREE-DIMENSIONAL CORSAGE PINK ROSE BROOCH
Price: S$35.00 (US$29.17) nett


Size: 56 x 85mm
Very good condition, normal aging, some flaking of the green paintwork on the underside. The brooch is very three-dimensional, large-sized almost like a corsage. It is made plastic, in layers, possibly celluloid, acetate or some form of old plastic. There appears to be some touch-ups on the flower itself, the silver glitter edges and the tops of the pink petals may have been added later. I am guessing this as the underside petals seem to have a more original paintwork similar to how the leaves are. Wonderful statement piece, possibly around 1950s. Will ship in a box for safety.
