This is a cold enamel Pansy pin by Exquisite Jewellery Ltd., of Solihull, Warwickshire, England. It was one of their range of Birthday Flower Brooches introduced and extremely popular during the 1960's. These pins came in two sizes with a flower for every month of the year! This is the larger sized one! The Company also had a range of Leaf pins and matching earrings, as well as many other lines in quality costume jewellery. The Pansy Brooch is the pin for May . It has a silver tone finish and has the classic "bow" tied around the bunch of flowers which features on all these designer pins. The detail on this Pansy Flower Brooch is gorgeous! There are three perfect pansies, yellow with a white middle, very dark mauve (almost deep navy) with a white middle and a two tone pinky purple pansy with a black middle. You can really tell that these lovely collectible vintage brooches used to be expertly painted by hand! It is in good vintage condition. What a great gift for anyone who has a May Birthday or just because you like it! Approximate measurements are 6.5cms (2.5ins) by 4cms (1.5ins). This item fastens with a rollover type clasp.
