Vintage Rhinestone Bow Brooch

This is a vintage costume jewelry brooch designed in a stylized, multi-looped bow or floral-ribbon motif. The piece is constructed from a textured gold-tone base metal, featuring fine cord-like or rope-twist detailing that creates a sense of movement and volume. The central strips of each ribbon loop are pavé-set with round, brilliant-cut clear rhinestones, which appear to be foil-backed glass or crystal. The metalwork shows a high level of craftsmanship with secure prong and channel-like settings for the stones. The gold-tone finish exhibits a rich, warm patina consistent with mid-century costume jewelry, likely dating from the 1950s to the 1970s. While no maker's mark is visible on the front, the complexity of the layered loops suggests a quality manufacturer. The item appears to be in very good vintage condition, with all stones present and showing minimal clouding or yellowing. There are minor signs of wear on the high points of the gold plating, revealing slight oxidation typical for its age. The back features a traditional horizontal pin stem with a safety rolling-over clasp, which is partially visible on the right side.
