The piece is shield-shaped, surrounded by an ornate embossed frame, reminiscent of traditional decorative silverware motifs.

Each section of the coat of arms features colorful heraldic symbols: a white lion on a blue background, a red cross on a white background, a red diagonal band with white stars on a yellow background, and a golden lion on a black background. The enamel provides a brilliant finish and enhances the richness of the details, with well-contrasted colors (blue, red, white, yellow, black, and gold).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole displays a beautiful finish, highlighted by the shiny silver-toned surround. The domed aspect of the coat of arms and the quality of the enamel attest to careful costume jewelry craftsmanship, typical of tourist and souvenir brooches from the 1950s-1970s.

Enamel brooches of this type were popular in the 1950s-1970s, often produced as souvenirs for travelers or at regional events. Cold enamel applied to silver-plated metal made it possible to faithfully reproduce the colors of the coats of arms while ensuring good wear resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAFW Reassurance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast shipping and careful packaging guaranteed by a professional seller specializing in antique and vintage items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKeywords: coat of arms brooch, Saarland pin badge, enameled badge, vintage jewelry, escutcheon brooch, silver-toned costume jewelry, regional brooch, enamel brooch, Saarland souvenir, vintage enamel pin, Germany escutcheon, tourist badge\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256148775239,"sku":"EBAY-315873464499","price":3.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/5152\/8775\/files\/s-l1600_0da46a40-29b6-4460-8b83-959a5fa3827f.jpg?v=1782774491","url":"https:\/\/shop.antiquefranceworldwide.com\/en\/products\/broche-blason-saarland-vintage-metal-argente-emaille-ecusson-pin-badge","provider":"AFW","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
