Vintage 80s-90s R.O.C. Taiwan Design Pin – Rare Graphic Shape
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This vintage pin features a colorful graphic design, typical of the late 1980s or early 1990s. Its rectangular shape with softened corners is enhanced by a pattern of interlocking circles and arcs, in a palette of yellow, red, blue, and white. The overall effect evokes a distinctly retro style, highly representative of the graphic trends of that period.
The item is still in its original plastic bag, allowing the printed inscription "MADE IN TAIWAN R.O.C." to be seen, confirming its Taiwanese manufacture from that era. The visible attachment on the back shows a classic pin, typical of promotional or event pins distributed in the 80s-90s.
The finish has a glossy metallic look on the edges, while the colored parts appear to be enameled or lacquered, offering an attractive visual contrast. No specific brand is legible on the front, but the style is reminiscent of decorative badges and pins produced on a large scale during the vintage period.
The pin is displayed on a patterned textile background, which highlights its graphic style and vibrant colors. No major defects are visible through the bag, suggesting the item is well-preserved.
This pin stands out for its original design, clearly indicated provenance, and its "still in bag" condition, all appreciated characteristics for objects from this era.
