Vintage sun brooch, golden pearl, 70s? Elegant retro jewelry

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Antique stylized brooch in the shape of a sun, typical of 1970s fantasy jewelry. The center of the brooch is adorned with a pearlescent cabochon, encircled by a gold-tone setting. The twelve rays have a reflective gold-tone finish, with plays of light that accentuate the sun effect and give the piece a dazzling and vintage look.

The brooch has a domed and radiating structure, with rounded and tapered branches, each slightly curved to enhance the sense of movement. The central cabochon, with its pearl-like appearance, displays a brilliant ivory hue, highlighted by a gold-tone rim that emphasizes its roundness and luster.

The gold-tone finish of the rays reveals, in places, slightly patinated or iridescent nuances, which gives the piece a retro authenticity and period charm. The piece is worn with a pin clasp visible on the back (partially seen in the photo), typical of costume jewelry from this period.

In the background, a pearl necklace or chain can be seen, which is not included in the sale but highlights the refined style of the brooch. No marking, logo, or signature is visible on the exposed side.

Condition

Used item sold as is. The brooch shows slight signs of wear visible on the gilding, particularly on some rays, without detracting from the overall decorative effect. The central cabochon is intact, with no cracks or apparent chips on the visible face.

Did you know? Sun-motif brooches were very popular in the 1970s, a period marked by an enthusiasm for organic forms and solar symbols in costume jewelry. This type of ornament was often worn on jackets or scarves to add a luminous touch to an outfit.
