Terrific super bright colors of shocking pink and wild orchid combine in a dramatic zinnia style floral pin. Measures an enormous 3 and 1/8" (nearly 8 cm) across so adds a real visual punch on your lapel, a purse, a hat, or on a scarf; we've seen these attached to hair bands, too, but you have to be careful or it can get tangled in your hair. Fabulous pin, terrific condition with minor wear evident on the backside. Latches securely, ready to wear! Traditionally considered spring or summer colors ...

Awesome Nouveau Vintage Floral Gold Pin with Stone

$113 USDAwesome Nouveau Vintage Floral Gold Pin with Stone

Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
Here is a beautiful pin that looks like something that Mucha would have created! There is no marking or signature on this pin, and it polished up quite nicely with a bit of simichrome (see before/after photos). There is a clear prong set stone in the center of the flower, it appears somewhat crudely cut, like an eight-cut top almost, but i have not had it appraised, and i don't have a jeweler's loupe (yet). It is, however, a gorgeous, classic pin. Measures one and 3/8" by 5/8".

A fabulous collectible, outstanding worn alone, or grouped with other fun mosaics. Measures about one and 3/8" across by about one and 1/16" high.

Vintage Deco Era Renoir Copper Leaf Pin

Interesting Bow with Laurel, Star, Crown & Sceptre Vintage Dangle Pin

$21 USDInteresting Bow with Laurel, Star, Crown & Sceptre Vintage Dangle Pin

Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
It seems to me, that the story of this was that it belonged to a woman who was from a well to do family, and even though she didn't NEED to work, was a teacher. She loved children, she loved to help others, she loved to travel, and she loved jewelry. She had quite a collection...some exquisite, some much more simple, but each piece that she had struck her fancy in some such way, so that she would keep it, and one day share it with another. This piece was one of hers. One family member said they ...
