Vintage golden windsurfing brooch, fantasy enamel metal, nautical jewel

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

An antique costume brooch depicting a windsurfing scene, typical of vintage style. The brooch features a stylized figurative motif: a windsurfer standing on a board, holding a triangular sail. The details are enhanced by a golden finish over the entire visible surface, with white and red enameled areas highlighting the sail tips and the base of the board. The overall look evokes a playful, summery piece, associated with the nautical world and seaside leisure activities.

The design features an alternation of smooth areas and granular textured parts on the sail, creating a play of light typical of 1970s-1980s costume jewelry. The bright colors and gilding give the piece a luminous appearance, with a marked contrast between the white, red, and gold segments. The entire piece is mounted on a rigid support, whose three-dimensional form accentuates the movement of the athlete and the sail.

The visible side shows no apparent marks or signatures. The back and clasp mechanisms are not visible in the photo, in accordance with instructions. The brooch is presented on a light velvet cushion, inside a decorative box with embossed floral motifs, suggesting careful presentation.

The miniature scene is particularly expressive, with a relief effect accentuated by the treatment of the gilded metal and the application of colored enamel. The object, through its iconography, belongs to the world of sports or marine-themed costume jewelry and is in line with the decorative trends of vintage accessories.

The compact shape and asymmetrical composition of the brooch allow it to be worn on various textile supports, adding a retro and original touch to an outfit or accessory.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible side shows a beautiful shine of the gilding and enamel, with slight signs of use consistent with a vintage piece. No major chips or apparent defects on the photographed part.
