Enamel pin The Tournels vintage retro advertising decor accessory

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage advertising pin features a colorful enamel design, illustrating a stylized landscape with a green tree, a blue body of water with waves and a white sailboat, as well as an orange sun rising or setting on the horizon. The inscription "LES TOURNELS" is written in golden capital letters on a yellow band at the bottom of the pin, perfectly legible on the visible side. The overall shape is free-form, following the contours of the design, which gives it a graphic appearance typical of promotional items from the 1980s-1990s.

The pin is presented in a blue velvet-surfaced case, which enhances its vibrant colors and brilliant finishes. The enamel offers a smooth and luminous surface, accentuating the contrast between the flat colors (green, blue, yellow, orange) and the golden outlines that highlight each element of the decor.

The motif evokes a holiday resort or campsite, probably located by the sea or a lake, with a strong summer connotation thanks to the presence of the sailboat and the sun. This graphic style and manufacturing technique are characteristic of promotional pins distributed in the tourism or event sector at the end of the 20th century.

The visible side shows no major apparent defects: the enamel appears intact, with no chips or scratches visible in the photo. The colors are clear and the gilding of the contours is well preserved. No other text, secondary logo or brand is observable on the front part.

This enamel advertising pin is a retro decorative accessory, appreciated for its colorful finish and evocative graphics. It can be worn on clothing, displayed in a showcase, or used as a decorative element on a textile or cardboard support.

Condition
