Lot of 3 Art Deco Style Pins / Brooches and Dress Clip ~ Rhinestones ~ Estate:
$15.00

My mom (AKA TheQueen of Bling) recently passed away, leaving hundreds of pieces of jewelry toa daughter who rarely even wears earrings. After spending many hours (andmany dollars) having a gemologist look through my mom’s jewelry, we decided tospeed up the process and have her just divide the pieces into “costume” and morevaluable. So, for a lot of my mom’scostume jewelry, I don’t have specifics about materials/stones used. I’ve tried to give a good description of theitems, but please know I’m definitely not an expert on jewelry.

This sale is for a lot of twopins/brooches and what I think is a dress clip, all done in an Art Deco style.

The first pin measuresapproximately 2-1/4” wide by 5/8” tall and features “feathers” in black, darkblue and gray (I’m not sure what this is made from . . . perhaps glass orenamel). There are three rhinestones atthe top and more set around the edges.The pin is made from silver tone metal and has a neat safety feature onthe pin (you pull out a little “plunger” which releases the pin). The metal has darkened, and the glass/enamelshows surface wear, but there are no missing stones or other damage.

The second pin measuresapproximately 3” wide by ¾” tall and is in the shape of a curvy arrow flyingthrough a rectangle. The pin isdecorated with bright green rectangular glass pieces with rhinestones allaround. It’s made from silver tone metaland is in good condition, with no damage or missing stones.

I think the third piece iscalled a dress clip. It’s made fromblack plastic (or, perhaps, bakelite) done in the shape of a leaf. The top is covered with rhinestones. The clasp on the back has four sharp littleprongs, I guess to grip into fabric. Theclip shows some wear to the back, but there are no missing stones.

(Please excuse my poorphotography skills. A lot of the“darkness” in my pictures is from my shadow, the reflection from my red camera,and objects in the room. The pins aremuch prettier and sparklier than my pictures show.)
