Gold-Tone Floral Stick Pin with Faux Diamond
This item is a stick pin featuring a decorative floral-shaped head in a warm gold-tone metal, likely plated or costume jewelry given the visible wear and texture. The head of the pin is designed to resemble a stylized bloom, with multiple petals that appear to be individually formed and textured, giving them a slightly organic or crumpled appearance. The texture on the petals is somewhat uneven, contributing to its artisanal aesthetic. At the center of the bloom, a single round, faceted clear stone is set, which, based on visual inspection, appears to be a faux diamond or a crystal simulant, exhibiting moderate brilliance. The stone is held securely within the floral setting, likely by prongs or a bezel integrated into the petal design. Below the floral head, a slender metal chain extends downwards, terminating in a short, horizontal bar. This chain and bar mechanism is characteristic of a stick pin, designed to secure the pin through fabric by threading the bar through a loop or catch on the reverse side of the garment. The overall condition shows signs of use and age, with some visible wear to the gold-tone finish, particularly on the edges and raised areas of the petals, where some of the underlying metal might be peeking through or the plating has thinned. The design suggests a mid-20th century to late 20th-century aesthetic, possibly 1950s-1980s. The craftsmanship, while decorative, points to mass production rather than fine artisanal jewelry. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible in the provided image.
