Product description
This is a figural elephant brooch originating from Germany in the 1950s. The piece is a charming example of mid-century costume jewellery, notable for its substantial size and detailed, whimsical design.
The brooch is constructed from a metal base, likely brass, and is intricately pavé-set with clear glass rhinestones that define the elephant's form. Its body is distinguished by a large, opaque white glass cabochon, with a small red stone for an eye and a pink marquise-cut stone forming the tusk. The reverse side features a standard pin and clasp mechanism.
Overall, the piece is in good condition, consistent with its vintage provenance. It retains all its stones and the structural integrity is sound. The metal setting on the reverse shows a natural patina that has developed over time, adding to its authentic character.
As a distinctive accessory, this brooch is well-suited for adorning the lapel of a coat, a blazer, or a scarf. It serves as a unique statement piece that brings a touch of post-war glamour and personality to a modern wardrobe.
