Fiesta Forever

elva

The party never ends with this pair of amazing vintage "diorama" brooches, perhaps made by Coro and likely from the 1940s. Crafted with whimsy, ingenuity, and clever charm--not to mention wonderful quality--these brooches show captivating scenes of old Mexico, complete with a cactus, sombreros, a dress-clad dancer playing in a band, and a lonesome cowboy with his saddle. Remarkable in figural detail, though with some visible losses to the enamel finish here and there, these are such rare and unique finds--we've never seen anything like them in our 13 years of treasure hunting for vintage jewels. And a pair?! A treasure, indeed. We've simply pinned the duo across strands of glossy, polished black onyx, allowing you to enjoy the brooches featured on the black backdrop of a necklace or to opt to wear them elsewhere to adorn and delight. A gilt copper toggle clasps the design at 18.5" in length.
