Vintage Pin The Flavours of Charolais Beef retro cuisine square black
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Visual Description
This old advertising pin is square-shaped, with rounded corners and a matte black front. The bright red frame highlights the central graphic. The inscription "Les Saveurs du Bœuf" (The Flavours of Beef) appears in stylized yellow letters, accompanied by the mention "CHAROLAIS" in white capital letters, positioned below. A visible red "Label Rouge" logo completes the composition at the bottom. The overall visual evokes the world of French gastronomy and the meat industry, with a design typical of 1990s promotional items.
The finish of the visible side shows a smooth surface, punctuated by some signs of wear or micro-scratches, indicating previous use. The color printing is clear, with each graphic element remaining perfectly legible. The contrast between the dark background, the red frame, and the yellow/white lettering gives this pin an instantly recognizable retro style.
The visible side has no superfluous decoration, focusing on the institutional aspect and the promotion of the "Charolais" quality label. No other motifs or reliefs are observable on this side. The pin is photographed from the front, with no indication of the attachment system on the back.
Condition
This pin is a used item, showing superficial signs of wear on the front (visible small scratches, signs of use). It remains in good overall visual condition, with well-preserved colors and perfectly legible inscriptions. Sold as is.
Did you know? Charolais is one of the most renowned French cattle breeds for the quality of its meat. The Label Rouge (Red Label), visible on this pin, guarantees a superior level of quality, awarded according to strict specifications since 1965. Advertising campaigns for Charolais beef were particularly active in the 80s-90s, a period during which many promotional items like this one were distributed.
