Vintage Faux Pearl Flower Basket Brooch

This is a vintage flower basket themed brooch, likely dating from the mid-20th century, approximately 1950s to 1970s. The piece is constructed from a cast base metal with a heavily textured, antiqued gold-tone finish that mimics the look of woven wicker and organic foliage. It features six cream-colored faux pearls, possibly glass or plastic with a nacreous coating, arranged as flower heads within the basket structure. The metalwork shows deep recessed areas with artificial oxidation to enhance the three-dimensional relief. The construction appears to be a solid cast mold with the faux pearls glued or pinned into circular settings. Regarding condition, the metal shows significant patina and some wear to the gold plating, particularly on the raised edges, which is consistent with its age. Some dulling of the pearl luster is visible. The piece reflects the popular costume jewelry styles and mid-range craftsmanship typical of mass-produced fashion accessories from the mid-century era. No visible maker's marks are discernible from the primary view, though such items were frequently produced by companies like Sarah Coventry or Trifari in similar motifs.
