Vintage 1950s Christian Dior 3-Dimensional Floral Brooch with Austrian Rhinestones
Vintage Christian Dior dual brooch and scarf clip circa the 1950s with emerald green Austrian crystal rhinestones prong-set in darkened silver tone-metal, forming a three-dimensional floral shape. The same brooch is featured in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's jewelry collection in New York with Aurora Borealis stones - I have a demi parure of that brooch and it's coordinating earrings listed separately as well. The brooch has been professionally authenticated, and separately consulted on by an appraiser Dr. Marked with a French notation for a patent on the clip mechanism; otherwise unsigned.
