AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old irregularly shaped pin, with contours evoking a stylized silhouette. The visible side features a shiny black background, enhanced with a golden border all around. In the center, the white "OM" logo is highlighted, with the letter "M" in a distinctive light blue, typical of Olympique de Marseille. To the left of the "O", a white football with golden dimples is integrated into the design. The base of the pin features the inscription "MARSEILLE" in golden letters, partially in relief.

The surface of the pin has a smooth, enameled finish, giving the whole a luminous effect. The main visible colors are black, light blue, white, and gold, offering a marked contrast and a retro look characteristic of the 80s-90s. The typography and general aesthetic, as well as the complex shape of the contours, evoke the graphic spirit of football fan accessories from that period.

This pin is designed to be worn on clothing, a cap, or displayed on a dedicated stand. Its front side has no visible manufacturer's inscription or date.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible side appears in good overall condition, with no major scratches or chips observable on the enamel or gilding. The inscription "MARSEILLE" remains legible, with a slight patina on some gilded areas, consistent with vintage use.
