Vintage Brooch Pin Clip 18k Gold Coral Gems Leo Zodiac Estate Jewelry
Title: Vintage Brooch Pin Clip 18k Gold Coral Gems Leo Zodiac Estate Jewelry
Description: An adorable vintage pin made of 18 karat gold, coral and gemstones. The brooch designed as a cute little lion and can be worn as a Leo Zodiac sign piece of jewelry. The clip is a great gift for everyone born between July 23 and August 22. The lion’s body is carved out of angel skin coral. The head, tale and mane are made of 18 karat yellow gold. The mane is composed of the gold spiky loops. The eyes are accented with emeralds, and the mouth with ruby. This charming creature has plenty of character. Along with carrying an amazing vintage jewelry feel, it will always make you smile. This vintage brooch measures 2" x 1 ½” x ½” (5.3 x 3.8 x 1.4 centimeters) and weighs 32.7 grams. The clasp is stamped with two unidentified hallmarks. Vintage jewelry is something we can talk about for days. Since the subject is that big and has multiple aspects to discuss, we’d like to focus on the most important parts of it. Let’s define what the vintage jewelry is, why it’s so appealing and how to buy your vintage jewelry online. In the industry, different sellers and makers have different opinions on the time period when vintage jewels were made. Here at Nadine Krakov, we consider vintage as anything being made between 50 and 100 years ago. Therefore, all jewelry produced from 1930 to 1980 called vintage. Why do we love vintage jewelry so much? It’s all about the quality of making and - of course - the look. Vintage pieces were mostly made by hand or at least hand-finished while modern jewels are mainly cast. As the lifestyle back in the days was much more slower, jewelry makers literally had more time in their hands. Skilled craftsmen honed their craft and reputation. They couldn’t allow a flimsy, poorly done piece to ruin that. Mass market jewelry didn’t exist at that time. Each little detail of a piece was executed thoughtfully and with the high quality in mind.
