Vintage Faux Pearl and Rhinestone Wreath Brooch with Ribbon Motif

This is a circular costume jewelry brooch, likely dating from the mid-to-late 20th century. The piece features a silver-tone base metal setting designed in a decorative wreath shape. It is embellished with varying sizes of cream-colored faux pearls—likely glass or plastic with a nacre-like coating—and numerous small clear round rhinestones. A stylized ribbon or bow element sits on the upper left, while a cluster of three marquise-shaped floral motifs anchors the bottom left. The gemstones are mostly round-cut, set in a mix of pavé and prong settings. Condition-wise, the brooch shows significant signs of age and wear: at least one round rhinestone is missing from its setting near the top, and another round element appears discolored or has lost its reflective backing, turning a dull yellow-grey. The faux pearls show light surface scuffs and minor loss of luster. Structurally, the pin back is visible across the center, indicating a traditional pin-and-clasp mechanism. The style is classic mid-century costume jewelry, emulating fine jewelry designs of the period.
