Exquisite Crystal Spray Brooch Pin Signed ART This dazzling beauty is one of the nicest creations I've seen by ART(c). The goldtone plating is so interesting with the combination of polished and engraved textures, and the three dimensional stacking of layers is just right for this piece. Light and medium topaz crystals topped with golden beads twist here and there as if going straight for the sun. Accented by AB crystals in little dewdrop cups on the leaves and among the flowers is is endearing. The brooch is 2 3/8" x 1 7/8" and is in Excellent condition. Would make a great gift for the redhead in your life. $45 |

A big green navette for the eye, and we have a true beauty. Think of how this jewel will set off spring dresses and shirts.

Art Deco Pin with Ruby Red Hexagon Stone. Larger than the usual collar pin, this circa 1920's piece has a Czech look to it, but no signature. The stamped brass has aged beautifully, is free of verdigris, full of beaded and floral decorations and studded with prong set green, blue and red pastes, some of which appear to be older cuts, similar to old mine cuts. All the stones are unfoiled. The center faceted hexagon stone is fabulous ruby red, just gorgeous, set openback in decorated prongs. The back is equipped with an open C-clasp. This pin is 1 7/8" wide x 1 1/4' tall. Very Good condition. $58 |

Sterlingcraft by Coro Retro Modern Vermeil Vintage Brooch
Sterlingcraft is among the better Coro signatures for sterling vermeil brooches made during the 1940s, when base metals were called in by the US government. The style is retro modern, for sleek, geometric, or curvy ribbonesque sterling brooches and other sterling jewelry made during that same time period with either one rhinestone or just a few. These are usually unfoiled stones. This beauty is 2 7/8" tall x 2 1/4" wide and offers three beautiful unfoiled sapphire glass stones prong set into openback settings. The vermeil has no wear mentionable and the brooch is in Excellent condition. Signed inside the smaller ribbon curl on the left side, Sterlingcraft by Coro around the inside of an oval plate. $72

DeLizza & Elster Juliana Blue and Green Rhinestone BroochVerified by Frank DeLizza.

Antique Pot Metal
Cockatiel or Bird of Paradise Rhinestone Brooch
This beautiful peacock, cockatiel, or bird of paradise was created and copied by several designers or manufactures during circa 1930s to mid-1940s. I've never seen one signed. This is the shorter version at only 3" tall. In Warman's Vintage Jewelry, 2008 edition, page 10, author Leigh Leshner shows this bird in several sizes and explains that differences in design sizes were common. Crystal rhinestones are pave along the body and tail feathers of bird, who also sports a twinkling blue rhinestone eye. The bright silvery finish does not show much wear, and the rhinestones flash like crazy. Very Good+ for this beloved antique. Fastens with early safety catch. $68 |

Bewitching Autumn Beaded Cluster BroochThe bewitching hour is near, and time to wear this mysteriously Haskellesque beaded flower brooch, decorated with clusters of glass moonstones, faux pearls and rhinestones in undreamed of color combinations--teal, hyacinth, fruit & gold! Rose montees glisten from golden lacy filigree in a wealth of autumn crowded into one spectacular brooch. Warmth. The brooch is 4" tall, the base flower formed by a wondrously undulating filigree and twisted chain forming the stem along with golden beads as florets. This brooch is chunky, rising 3/4" above the pinstem. Very Good + condition. $53

Huge Spectacular Vintage Rhinestone Bow Brooch -- 6" WideYears ago, a customer wanted a vintage bow brooch at least 6" wide for her wedding. I've been on the lookout ever since, and though she is now happily married, there is someone reading this right now who wants the biggest brooch we've ever offered on Enchantment. Though the style is circa 1935, the brooch is rhodium plated, unusual for its' day. Though unsigned, it's a beautifully designed and well made. |

Each side looks like an angel's wing, with flighty openwork and raised tiers of square rhinestones incorporated into the pave design As you can expect with a brooch of this period, some of the rhinestones are aging, but none are discolored and the overall look is sparkling, brilliant and clean. This incredible jewel is 6" wide from the widest points; each side is 3 1/8 tall. Condition is Excellent! Enjoy this rare, rare beauty! $160.
