Rare Forbidden Fruit Mushroom Pin - Best of the Best!

Jewelry : Collectible : Costume : Forbidden Fruit

 

I've collected Forbidden Fruit for 20+ plus years, having over 55 of the fruits and vegetables in my collection. This is the first mushroom pin I have found. It's extremely hard-to-find, even rare, pin in the Forbidden Fruit series.

Forbidden Fruits were made in Austria in the 1950s. The rhinestones are always sparkling and have stood the test of time. This brooch has a Lucite or transparent plastic body in a light tan color. Swarovsky rhinestones in a champagne color adorn the mushroom's cap and even though this brooch is approximately 60 years old, still sparkle and glitter to this day.

The stem and little side mushroom are a muted goldtone.

The brooch is 2-1/8" long x 1-3/8" wide and has a set-in pin stem and safety clasp which works well. In excellent vintage condition.
