Vintage strawberry fancy enamel red orange brooch, retro fruit jewelry

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Fancy brooch depicting two stylized strawberries, one bright red and the other orange, with green leaf details and small gold dots evoking the fruit's achenes. The outlines are highlighted by a gold border, adding a luminous touch to the whole. This brooch adopts a graphic and playful style, typical of retro costume jewelry, without being able to precisely date the piece.

The brooch has a double shape, with the two strawberries joined together, creating a voluminous effect and colorful contrast. The surfaces are smooth and shiny, evoking an enameled finish or a lacquer applied to the base. The details are crisp, the colors bold and saturated, giving the object a joyful and pop look.

On the back (not visible in the photo), one would expect to find a classic pin-type fastening system, typical of costume brooches. The absence of a visible mark on the front suggests an unsigned costume jewel, but made with care. The absence of a signature or hallmark is common on this type of costume jewelry.

The brooch stands out for its generous proportions, ideal for wearing on a jacket lapel, a coat, or even for accessorizing a bag. The contrast between red and orange, enhanced by the green of the leaves, makes it a very visual decorative accessory, perfect for a retro or fruity touch.

The golden decorative elements (borders and dots) contribute to the overall luminous effect and recall the trends of vintage costume jewelry, where the enameled appearance and bright colors were sought after for their playful and assertive side.

Condition

Used item sold as is. Some signs of wear and small surface marks may be observed, including a slight stain visible on the red strawberry. The item remains in good overall condition for a vintage costume jewel.

Did you know? Fruit-shaped brooches became very popular in costume fashion from the 1950s onwards, worn to add a touch of color and originality to outfits. Colored enamel is a technique prized since the 19th century for providing shine and durability to costume jewelry.
