Gold-Tone Floral Brooch with Imitation Pearl

This item is a vintage-style floral brooch, likely made from gold-tone metal, possibly plated. Its design depicts a stylized flower with multiple overlapping petals, fanning out to create a three-dimensional effect. The central most prominent petal is softly curved, while outer petals appear to fold around it, giving the piece depth and organic form. The surface of the petals has a textured, brushed, or satin finish, which subtly catches the light, contrasting with what appears to be a slightly brighter, perhaps polished, edge or rim on some of the petal tips. At the very center of the bloom, there is a single, round, cream-colored imitation pearl, securely set, adding a classic touch. A slim stem-like element extends downwards from the base of the flower. The overall color is a rich, warm yellow-gold. Measuring approximately 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter, this brooch is a medium-sized accessory. There are no immediately visible signs of heavy wear, significant damage, or extensive repairs, though a soft patina characteristic of aged metal may be present. No maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the provided image. Based on its style, particularly the gold-tone finish and the use of an imitation pearl, this brooch likely dates to the mid-20th century, possibly the 1950s or 1960s, a period known for elegant costume jewelry. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality for costume jewelry, with well-formed petals and a securely set central element.
