AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This old advertising pin features the ISALIS Opticians brand, identifiable by the inscription visible on the front: "ISALIS" in large golden letters, topped with red geometric shapes and underlined by the mention "OPTICIENS" in white letters on a red background. The whole adopts an original, angular and dynamic shape, evoking a graphic style typical of advertising materials from the late 20th century.

The piece presents a marked contrast between the bright red areas and the metallic-looking golden surfaces, with sharp contours and a brilliant finish on the enameled part. The background of the badge is structured by a double frame, accentuating the relief effect and the legibility of the logo. The overall appearance suggests careful manufacturing, typical of promotional pins distributed in the 80s or 90s, a period when this format was particularly popular in the optics and commercial signage sector.

The pin is presented on a red velvet box, which highlights its colors and retro style. The contrast between the gilding and the red enamel accentuates the advertising character of the object. No clasp or back details are visible in the photo, in accordance with the shooting angle.

The graphic details - massive lettering, red triangles, structured frame - reflect a search for visual impact, typical of promotional items from the late 20th century. The visible surface shows slight traces of use, particularly on the golden borders, which is common for an old badge.

The entire front face is in good visual condition, without major chips or apparent defects on the enamel. This pin is an authentic testament to brand communication in the optics sector, with an immediately recognizable design.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Slight wear visible on the gilding of the outline; colored enamel in good apparent condition on the visible face.
