Vintage-Style Holly Leaf Christmas Brooch

This is a festive Christmas-themed brooch featuring a detailed spray of three holly leaves and five imitation pearl berries. The construct is likely gold-tone base metal, typical of mid-to-late 20th-century costume jewelry. The centerpiece consists of one leaf finished in a translucent emerald green enamel over a textured metal surface, giving it a subtle shimmer and depth. Flanking the green leaf are two broader holly leaves entirely pavé-set with clear round rhinestones, which provide a brilliant contrast and high-glint effect. Clusters of five round, white faux pearls represent the holly berries at the base where the leaves join. The item appears to be in excellent condition with no visible missing stones or significant chipping of the enamel. There is a slight patina on the gold-tone stem, suggesting the item may be from the 1970s or 1980s. The craftsmanship is indicative of standard mass-market holiday costume jewelry, characterized by prong-set or glued stones and a rollover safety pin clasp on the reverse. The overall aesthetic is classic holiday kitsch, designed for seasonal wear and durability.
