Scrumptious Older Pot Metal Cherry Fruit Pin, Enameling and Rhinestones

Jewelry : Vintage : Pins

 

This is just the sweetest pin. Made entirely of pot metal, this pin is a wonderful example of early jewelry. The piece begins with three forest green enameled leaves on top that run through a rhinestone encrusted stem. The cherry itself is filled with pave set clear rhinestones, all of which are present. Most still retain their original fire but a few look like they have been replaced. The cherry is concave so that it juts out to look more realistic. The pin measures 2 1/4" by 2". Condition is QUITE GOOD for a piece of this age. A few spots of enameling have worn away and we have already discussed the rhinestones. Unsigned. This pin has a nice heft to it!
