The object has a figurative shape, with a polychrome enamel finish and gilded outlines visible throughout the piece. The character is in full celebration, bringing his hand to his mouth in an iconic gesture. The inscription \"PIRES\" appears in gold letters on a green base at the bottom of the pin, while the jersey bears the number 7 and the sponsor's name \"ERICSSON\" in black, typical details from the late 1990s for this club. The OM logo, also visible on the chest, authenticates the link with the Marseille team.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe representation of the player, as well as the color palette (white, blue, green, gold, and black), evoke the graphic style of sports pins produced in the 1990s. The gold outlines highlight the facial features, hairstyle, and clothing details, emphasizing the retro aspect and the quality of finish of this advertising object. The enamel offers a characteristic brilliance and highlights the different colored areas, creating a marked contrast between the background and the figurative elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dynamic posture of the player, associated with the gesture of the hand brought to the mouth, is faithful to a famous goal celebration. The entire pin is worked in relief, with precise details on the hair, face, jersey folds, and socks. The absence of visible major alterations on the front face indicates a satisfactory state of preservation, even if a slight patina related to age may be observed on the gilded edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis pin belongs to the category of sports promotional items related to French football, more particularly to OM. It is a supporter's accessory, typical of the 1990s, often pinned to a jacket or cap during matches or club events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe enameling technique used here, combined with the gold metal structure (visual aspect), gives the piece a beautiful presentation quality and increased durability compared to classic printed badges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
