Vintage Trifari Scepter Brooch with Cabochon and Enamel

This is a vintage bar-style scepter brooch produced by the renowned costume jewelry house Trifari. The piece measures approximately 2.5 to 3 inches in length and is constructed from Trifari's proprietary gold-tone base metal alloy, likely 'Trifarium,' known for its durability and high-luster finish. The design features a textured, spiral-wrapped handle leading to an ornate head. The head of the scepter is embellished with vibrant red cold-painted enamel accents, a central pear-shaped blue glass cabochon mimicking sapphire, and a round faux pearl at the terminal. Small red enamel diamond shapes flank the central stone, bordered by polished gold-tone ormamentation. The craftsmanship is high-quality, typical of Mid-Century or late 20th-century Trifari production (likely 1960s-1980s). The condition appears excellent with no visible loss to the enamel, though minor surface scratches on the gold-tone finish and very slight age-related dulling of the faux pearl can be expected. The reverse would feature a standard pin stem and safety catch, and although not visible, it would likely bear the Trifari crown mark or copyright stamp. The combination of primary colors and regal motif makes it a classic example of collectible costume jewelry.
