Vintage enameled KARA rectangular advertising pin from the 80s

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Rectangular advertising pin, an enamel badge type, depicting the brand "KARA" on the front face. The object has a rectangular shape with right angles, with a visible gold frame on the surface. The design is composed of three flat colors: a black top background, an irregular central white band, and a bright yellow bottom area. A horizontal red line separates the upper area from the central part. The inscription "KARA" clearly appears in white capital letters with a handwritten look, on the black part of the pin.

The visible surface is smooth and shiny, typical of an enameled finish, with sharp contours and bold colors. The gilding of the border and separations reinforces the qualitative and advertising aspect of this pin. No other patterns, logos, or text are visible on the front face.

The object is presented on a blue velvet case, which is not included unless otherwise specified. No attachment system is visible in this photo; only the front face of the pin is shown.

The graphic style, primary colors, and lettering clearly evoke an 80s advertising aesthetic, typical of brand communication from that period. The ensemble is representative of promotional items from the late 20th century.

This vintage advertising pin will be suitable for display on textile, a bulletin board, or a display stand, thanks to its bright colors and easily recognizable rectangular format.
