Vintage blue André Group pin A. Chouery Audicol donation rare
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This vintage lapel pin features an advertisement by Groupe André, recognizable by its graphic design in the shape of a stylized "V", composed of light blue and dark blue segments. The object has a compact structure, with a V-shaped top and a rectangular base displaying a clear inscription: "DONATION GROUPE ANDRÉ - A. CHOUERY AUDICOL". The lettering is in blue on a light blue background, creating a strong contrast and easy readability. The overall visual evokes the aesthetic of the 1980s-1990s, characterized by bright colors and bold geometric shapes.
The front, only visible in the photo, shows a smooth finish, probably enameled, with visible metallic outlines separating the different colored areas. The butterfly clutch on the back is partially visible; the item is presented in a clear plastic bag, suggesting it has not been worn or handled excessively.
The shades of blue used, combined with the rectilinear typography, give this lapel pin a retro look typical of promotional items from major French brands of the late 20th century. No major defects, scratches or missing parts are visible on the front. The surface appears well-preserved, without tarnishing or notable alteration of the design.
The lapel pin stands out for its theme related to a donation, making it both a decorative advertising object and a carrier of corporate history. It is an authentic piece with identifiable graphics, illustrating the craftsmanship of promotional accessory manufacturers from that period. The rectangular base and the V-shaped top create a unique silhouette, immediately recognizable to connoisseurs of corporate lapel pins.
The item comes in its original plastic bag, with a visible clasp, which is an additional asset for preserving its condition.
