AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

An antique fancy style brooch, representing a stylized perfume bottle, visible in the photo. The brooch has a pyramidal geometric shape with a hexagonal base, with a tapered top evoking the stopper of an old-fashioned bottle. The surface has a shiny gold finish, with strong metallic reflections. On the visible side, the inscription "8e jour" (8th day) is engraved in relief, suggesting a link to a perfume or brand with that name.

The design is sober and elegant, with a predominance of gold color, without any other visible ornamentation or stones. The overall appearance is reminiscent of costume jewelry creations from past decades, typical of vintage accessories inspired by the world of perfume. The clean lines and symmetry of the design enhance the impression of retro sophistication, while the raised lettering adds a touch of authenticity.

The clasp is not visible in the photo, but the object is clearly designed to be worn as a brooch, due to the size, shape, and presentation of the piece. The item is photographed on a beige and brown textile background, which highlights the golden shine of the brooch.

The piece does not have any additional visible brand or logo on the front. No chips or major scratches are visible on the main surface, but there are slight signs of use consistent with an old piece of jewelry. The metal's texture shows some irregularities, enhancing the artisanal character or manual finish typical of certain vintage costume pieces.

This vintage piece of jewelry is an original decorative accessory, ideal for adorning a jacket, coat, or scarf, and for evoking the world of perfume and retro elegance.

Did you know? The perfume bottle motif was frequently used in costume jewelry from the 1970s-1990s, a period when accessories inspired by everyday objects were very popular. The inscription "8e jour" echoes a French perfumery tradition where each creation has an evocative name, often linked to notions of temporality or emotion.
