Carnations Brooch - Birthday Pin for October 1960s vintage brooch signed Exquisite
This is a cold enamel Carnation 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 smaller 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 Carnation Brooch is the pin for October . It has a silvery gold tone and because these pieces were hand finished, you get variations in the colours. This one has a white flower, a pale pink flower and and green leaves. It is in good vintage condition with just a few tiny spots of enamel wear within the flowers. What a great gift for anyone who has an October Birthday or just because you like it! Approximate measurements are 5cms (2ins) by 3.5cms (just over 1ins). This item fastens with a rollover type clasp.
