This stunning mid-century brooch features an arrangement of overlapping leaves in warm, antique gold tones, finished with a cluster of three faux pearls. Its sculptural design and delicate mesh detailing make it a lovely example of the decorative costume jewellery popular during the middle decades of the twentieth century.

Crafted from gold plated brass, the brooch features layered, irregularly shaped leaves with fine mesh centres and softly scalloped gold-tone borders. Twisted wire loops add another decorative element around the upper leaves, while the three small faux pearls provide a lovely finishing touch. The combination of open mesh, textured metal and overlapping shapes creates an attractive three-dimensional design.

Floral and foliage brooches have long been favourites in costume jewellery. Its warm metallic finish works beautifully with both plain and patterned fabrics, making it a charming addition to a jacket, dress or blouse.

Try it pinned to the lapel or add it to a simple dress for an evening out. For a little extra personality, wear it at the neckline of a crisp collared shirt or use it to secure a lightweight scarf. You can also explore our collection of Painted Bird Vintage jewellery for more accessories to enjoy alongside it.
