Vintage HOME SALONS pin – old advertising badge, green lettering

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Vintage advertising pin featuring the words "HOME SALONS" in green capital letters on a cream background. The item has a rounded cloud shape, typical of promotional pins from the 1980s-1990s. The vibrant green lettering contrasts sharply with the light background, offering good visibility. The edge of the pin is highlighted by a metallic-look finish, visible on the front. The entire design is made with colored enamel, a characteristic technique of pins from this period.

The visible side shows some signs of wear and a slight patina, particularly on the edges, testifying to its age and authenticity. No manufacturer's logo or brand name is visible on the front. The inscription "HOME SALONS" is clear and occupies almost the entire front surface, with no other decorations or additional motifs.

This pin, by its style and colors, evokes promotional items distributed at commercial events, fairs, or advertising campaigns related to interior design or home shows. Its compact and rounded shape, as well as its simple and direct graphics, reinforce this vintage advertising positioning.

The surface has a smooth, slightly domed appearance, typical of enamel pins. The contours are regular, with some marks of alteration due to time, visible mainly on the upper part and the ends.
