Vintage Green Rhinestone Pin

Documented in Print — A 1950s Rhinestone Classic

This captivating brooch is more than beautiful — it's a documented piece of costume jewelry history. A color variant of this exact pin appears on page 171 of 20th Century Costume Jewelry by Ronna Lee Aikins, placing it firmly in the canon of mid-century American costume jewelry design.

Dazzling faux emerald and pale green faceted rhinestones are arranged in multi-tiered layers, radiating outward from a center anchored by a highly detailed gold-tone rope motif that fans from the sides all the way inward. The result is a brooch with remarkable depth and light — one that draws the eye from across the room.
