This brooch is made of gilded metal, in accordance with the keywords, and is distinguished by an openwork shape evoking outstretched butterfly wings. The whole presents a retro aesthetic, typical of costume jewelry creations from past decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible surface displays a matte texture, offering a beautiful material effect and luminous reflections. The asymmetrical wings are composed of four openwork sections, each drawn in a gentle curve and enhanced by an irregular edge, deliberately hammered to accentuate the vintage style. A round white or ivory colored pearl, probably synthetic, is set at the junction of the wings, bringing an additional touch of elegance to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gilded metal has a homogeneous patina, without excessive shine, which reinforces the antique appearance of the brooch. No logo, brand or inscription is visible on the exposed face. The general structure is fine but rigid, suitable for use as a clothing or decorative accessory jewel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe brooch rests on a plain yellow support, which is not included in the sale, and natural light accentuates the contrasts on the gilding and the pearl. No major defects are observable on the front: no deep scratches, no visible missing parts, the pearl is well in place and the edges are clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis costume jewel is typical of the retro-vintage style, with an organic inspiration and a search for fluid forms, frequent in creations from the second half of the 20th century. The general appearance evokes the decorative trends of the 60s to 80s, without being able to specify the exact period due to a lack of dated elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e: Used item sold as is.
