Vintage Gold and Peridot-Tone Wreath Brooch

This is a circular wreath-style brooch weighing approximately 15-20 grams, measuring roughly 1.5 inches in diameter. The piece is constructed from a yellow gold-toned metal base, likely gold-plated or gold-filled costume metal, featuring a densely packed cluster of light green peridot-toned stones. These stones appear to be tumbled glass or semi-precious chips, such as peridot adventurine, exhibiting a translucent, yellowish-green hue. The stones are secured via a wire-wrapped or prong-set technique onto a framework base. Upon inspection, the pin mechanism is visible through the central aperture, appearing to be a classic safety pin or roll-over clasp common in mid-20th-century jewelry. The craftsmanship suggests a mid-century vintage era, likely 1950s-1970s. The condition shows moderate wear with some visible adhesive or oxidation on the metal setting near the interior ring. The stones retain a healthy luster, though minor surface scratching is expected. No specific maker's marks are visible from this angle, but the organic, textured arrangement is characteristic of boutique costume jewelry makers of the period.
