Vintage Costume Jewelry / Floral Brooch Pin and 22 similar items

COROCRAFT STERLING VINTAGE FAUX SAPPHIRE STONE FLORAL BROOCH CORO FOUNDED in 1901 by Cohn Rosenberger grew into an international costume jewelry company which was known for workmanship and outstanding finish quality. In the 1970s it was acquired by the Oscar De La Renta group. The Coro logo was adopted in 1943. Catamore was contracted to make their precious metal pieces. This charming vermeil/sterling minimalist floral brooch has three large sapphire colored faceted glass stones arranged in graceful order. Each on its own stem and open back mounting. You almost want to put it in a bud vase. Its gold surround and the play of sun light up this piece. It is appx 3? long and 1 1/2? wide and in a bow/corsage like configuration. It weighs 8.8 grams. It can be worn horizontal, vertical or best on an angle. It is clearly stamped, ?Sterling Coro Craft" on the reverse. The pin and clasp function properly. It dates from the 1960s and was from the estate of an avid collector dealer. It is a perfect gift for a new collector and makes a great wedding gift which fits the description, ?something old , something new, something borrowed, something blue.? It will arrive in a padded jewelry store box, ready for gifting. Fairly priced. Please examine photos fully for additional condition information.
