1.9 Lbs. Bulk Lot of Vintage and Vintage-Inspired Rhinestone Fashion Brooches

This is a diverse collection of decorative brooches weighing approximately 1.9 pounds, consisting of both true vintage and modern vintage-inspired costume jewelry. The assortment features a wide range of materials including gold-tone and silver-tone base metals, colorful rhinestones, faux pearls, and enamel. The collection is eclectic in style, showcasing various motifs such as butterflies, floral bouquets, figural animals (snails, cats, birds), starbursts, and word-based pins (e.g., 'BRIDE'). Notable pieces include a large pink-stoned crescent, a multi-colored butterfly with amber and red stones, and white enamel floral motifs. The construction varies from soldered metal settings to glued crystal applications, reflecting different tiers of craftsmanship and eras of production, likely spanning from the mid-20th century to contemporary reproductions. Physically, the items show a range of conditions common in bulk lots; some pieces appear well-preserved with intact plating, while others exhibit minor tarnishing, potential missing stones, or dulling of the finish (patina). Identifying marks aren't explicitly visible in the wide shot, but the presence of carded items (e.g., '1928' jewelry brand) suggests some mass-market manufactured pieces. The sheer variety and volume indicate a mix of casual fashion jewelry and potentially collectable vintage accessories.
