Vintage silver-tone metal leaf brooch with pearl, retro costume jewelry
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Antique brooch depicting a stylized leaf, made of silver-finished metal with a shiny appearance. This costume jewelry piece stands out with its openwork veins and elaborate relief, evoking delicate foliage in a retro style. In the center of the leaf, an ivory-toned imitation pearl adds an extra touch of elegance to the design.
The brooch has an elongated and tapered shape, inspired by natural motifs, typical of vintage accessories. The silver-plated metal highlights the play of light on the veins and openings of the foliage, while the central pearl draws the eye. The overall piece exudes a refined and feminine spirit, suitable for multiple clothing styles.
The clasp is not visible in the photo, but the pin appears to be solidly integrated into the structure. The visible surface shows no major scratches or apparent chipping; however, a patina characteristic of antique jewelry is noticeable, which accentuates the piece's vintage charm.
This costume jewelry, thanks to its silver finish and the addition of the pearl, lends itself to daily use or to adorn a dressy outfit. Its timeless leaf motif makes it an elegant accessory to enhance a jacket lapel, a scarf, or a hat.
The brooch is photographed on an antique jewelry box with an embossed design, which is not included in the sale. Only the front of the brooch is visible; no inscription or mark appears on this view.
