$40 USD SaleSALE Large, Unsigned JACK SMILE Lady Face Brooch
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin:Unsigned Designer Accessory
This noteworthy silvertone accessory is a splendid example of the work of Jack Smile, a rather elusive artisan. According to what little I have been able to able to ascertain, he evidently designed in the 1970s and '80s. I have seen a very comparable pendant necklace by J.S. with small matching earrings offered elsewhere on the Internet for $450. This particular piece measures approx. 3 1/4" long x 1 3/4" at it widest point. We have added a new clasp to replace the now-defective original one. ...

Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin:Awarded The Paw Of Approval
THIS ONE WILL NO LONGER BE OFFERED AS OF APRIL 1. My boy Archie approved this lovely brooch, and prettily posed with it! I had a terrible time capturing the fiery beauty of this piece.

Set in silvertone metal, all the stones are prongset and none has been dimmed by time. The outside border consists of large smoky baguettes with open backs. The inner ring and stem are composed of ...

$91 USD Offers Considered3 Musicians Scatter Pins: Probably C. 1940s: Jazzy!
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Brooch Trio
This accessory set was an heirloom trio previously in the possession of the former owner. Depicted are a silvertone sax player, a fellow with maracas, and a gent grooving to the beat on his concertina. They make me want to don wedged high heels and a diaphanous gown, and languidly smoke a cigarette in a palm-tree-decorated night club. But that's just me... The musicians measure approx 2" high with widths of approx. 3/4" to 1 1/16" at their widest points. Each has a glowing moonglow-cabochon face ...
$21 USDDainty, Darling Teapot Necklace by LUMINESS

$26 USD SaleSALE Vintage Mod Flower Power Demi-Parure: Orange & Fab!

Just what the doctor ordered to brighten up your jewelry wardrobe. Constructed of metal, the pin measures an impressive 3 1/2" long x 2 1/2" at its widest point, while the clip-on earrings are approx. 1 1/4" circumference. Barely noticeable, but upon close inspection, there is a wee bit of wear to the paint right at some of the edges. Set still looks utterly fab in that 1960s way, regardless!
$47 USDRegal Seahorse Brooch: Aurora-Borealis Rhinestones
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin

$47 USD Offers ConsideredUnsigned WENDY GELL Coca Cola Bottle & Rhinestone Brooch: Revamped
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin:Unsigned Designer Piece
This is one of Wendy Gell's most clever and iconic designs. As this accessory started out as a belt-buckle and most of us aren't adding fancy pieces to our suede belts anymore, man, I had the chutzpah to attempt to improve upon the original and have a more functional piece made of it, that being a brooch!

Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin:Designer, Signed
THIS IS THE END OF A LOT OF LOUIS FERAUD LADY FACE BROOCHES I HAD ACQUIRED FROM EUROPE A FEW YEARS AGO. A sister piece to this creation is featured in my friend Kathy Flood's wonderful "Costume Jewelry Figurals," on page 106. Was fortunate enough several years back to be able to purchase a lot of breath-taking face brooches by Feraud. Said lot was unworn warehouse stock created by the artist for his own line in the 1980s. This mind-boggling creation measures a most impressive 3 1/2" high x 2 7/8 ...

$33 USD Offers ConsideredBig BEAU REGARDS Earth, Stars, & Moon Shoulder-Duster Earrings
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural:Designer, Signed:Chandelier Style:Wood, Glass, & Metal
Beau Regards was a jewelry maker that sort of flies under the radar nowadays, but I think their designs were adorably creative. Case in point: this intergalactic pair of pierced earrings which measures in at about 3 1/8" long. One is signed on the back, along with featuring a copyright mark and "88" for the year. In excellent vintage condition.
$25 USD SaleSALE Big BEAU REGARDS Shoulder-Duster ER's: Birds, Hearts, Letters: On Orig. Card

Pierced style, they are composed mainly of painted wood, with metal accents and two glass-like drop stones.

$38 USD Offers ConsideredMondo Hodgepodge Cameo, Glass Cab., Tassel Brooch: One of a Kind!
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin:Disco Inferno
I would proffer a halting guess that this one dates back to the 1970s or perhaps '80s. Frankly, I picture the creator of this accessory as having been, perhaps, someone who spent a few too many nights at Studio 54--who then created this item in rehab. Whatever the actual circumstances of its inception, rest assured you will not be outdone by anyone else with a whit of taste while wearing this brooch! Tassel included, it measures a whopping 5 1/2" long x 2 3/4" at its widest point. Ingredients ...
$75 USD SaleSALE Huge Vintage Art Nouveau Style Lady Face Brooch: Signed
Antique & Vintage Jewelry:Vintage:Figural Pin
A mind-boggling piece that may be worn as either a brooch or a pendant since it has a bail as well. This lady measures 3 1/2" long x 2 3/8" at her widest point. She is signed "Fine Pewter" on the back, with some sort of logo in between those two words which is virtually impossible to read. Brooch was in pretty sad and decidedly dirty shape when I found it, but my friend Christen Douglass, a gifted jeweler, polished this pin up beautifully. It is far shinier (and infinitely prettier!) than the ...
