Carolee American Flag Bow Pin/Brooch

This is a patriotic-themed costume jewelry brooch fashioned in the shape of a stylized bow, evoking the design of the American flag. The piece features a gold-tone metallic base, which according to the provided context is 14 kt gold clad. The left loop of the bow is finished in a vibrant deep blue guilloché-style enamel, accented with raised gold-tone stars set with clear round crystals. The right loop and extending tail feature alternating stripes of rich red translucent enamel and rows of pavé-set clear round rhinestones, representing the stripes of the flag. The central 'knot' of the bow is further embellished with a vertical row of clear crystals. The construction shows high-quality casting with smooth edges and saturated enamel work typical of the Carolee brand. Based on the style and the designer's history, this piece likely dates from the late 20th century to the early 2000s, specifically created as part of a patriotic collection. The item appears to be in very good vintage condition, with the enameling intact and no visible missing stones. It is mounted on its original 'CAROLEE' brand display card, which adds to its provenance and collectibility.
