An antique costume brooch, shown in the photo, featuring a stylized floral shape. The jewelry has an elongated and slightly curved structure, evoking a stem or a plant volute, characteristic of the Art Nouveau style. The main side of the brooch is adorned with a succession of clear, faceted rhinestone-like stones of various sizes, harmoniously arranged alternately on the stem and in the lower part on circular motifs. The whole creates an effect of movement and lightness, recalling the sinuous lines inspired by nature.

The bright silver-colored metal finish enhances the sparkle of the stones. No hallmark or signature is visible on the presented side. The attachment system, partially visible on the left, corresponds to a classic brooch clasp, suitable for fastening to fabric. The stylized floral composition and the alternating volumes give this brooch a refined look, typical of vintage costume jewelry.

The surface of the jewelry shows clear reflections, without significant discoloration, suggesting an absence of gilding or enamel on the exposed side. The rhinestones appear to be well set, with no apparent gaps or visible displacements in the photo. No engraved decoration is observable; the decoration relies on the interplay of curves and the sparkle of the stones.

The brooch is photographed on a carved wooden case, but only the main item is included in this listing. No additional accessories are visible or included.

This costume jewelry, with its refined shape and stylized floral motif, falls within a vintage aesthetic that could date back to the mid-20th century or be inspired by the Art Nouveau movement. The sparkling effect and the delicate craftsmanship make it a decorative accessory, suitable for various clothing styles.

Condition: Used item, sold as is. The visible side has a beautiful general appearance, with no major apparent defects in the photo. Slight haze or traces of use are possible, typical of antique jewelry.
