Vintage Émile Maurin limited edition red gold advertising pin
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Old advertising pin representing the Émile Maurin brand, well-known in the industrial tooling sector. This pin has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, with an extension resembling a tool tag, a direct nod to the brand's technical world. On the visible side, there are two distinct areas: the upper part displays the inscription "Les dents de l’outillage" (The teeth of tooling) on a dark blue background, while the main part, in bright red, bears the inscription "EMILE MAURIN" in gold letters. The whole is enhanced by a shiny finish with an enameled look, highlighted by a golden border all around.
The surface of the pin is smooth and shiny, with an apparent enamel effect on the colored areas. The inscriptions are clear and perfectly legible. No additional motif is visible on the front, which reinforces the institutional and professional character of this pin. The color palette, dominated by red and gold, is typical of advertising objects from the 80s-90s, although the precise era is not explicitly dated on the object.
This pin is presented on a stand covered with an orange-red fabric, which is not included in the sale but highlights the object in the photograph. No major defects, chips, or scratches are visible on the front of the pin. The golden outlines show good brilliance, with no apparent signs of oxidation on the photographed area.
The object displays a resolutely advertising style, with simple typography and bold colors, characteristic of promotional items distributed at trade shows or in limited editions for partners or loyal customers.
The mention "limited edition" in the keywords underlines the potentially rare nature of this model, reserved for a select circle. The design evokes robustness and precision, values associated with the Émile Maurin brand in the field of tooling.
