A Pair of Lovely Dogwood Brooches

Jewelry : Vintage : Pins/Brooches

 

In order to price these beauties correctly, I used the keyword "dogwood" in the Ruby Lane search engine. I found another identical dogwood bloom to the single flower here in this listing: $21.00

And, though I don't find the double blossom pin, similar brooches in this category are $18 to $24.

So, I should price these two sterling silver (marked) pieces around $40. Wha??????????? I don't think so!!!

The double flower pin is marked "Beau" and is two inches wide. The other one is marked "sterling" and "hand made" and is an inch and a half.

I always wore them together, and always got a lot of compliments on them. I'm not sure why, but Dogwood Blossoms are very appealing..................my theory is that the actual Dogwood shrub and tree is fairly rare.....it doesn't grow in much of the country. So these lovely silver pins seem somehow so exotic!!

Mint condition!
