I Sorta Feel Like I Hit the Thrift Lottery. Anything Scream Out at You?

I hit one of my local thrifts today apparently right after someone had made a big jewelry donation. Everything was $5, and I went a little batty. The HAR brooch was the first thing I picked up, and my heart skipped a beat. I’m not great at this, so please tell me if anything speaks or screams out at you. Thanks.

Fantastic score!  I hope you brought your camping gear so you can be the first through the door tomorrow morning!  There's no other high like it 😍😆🤗!  Good for you!

I'm not a hoarder! There's a price tag on everything!

The Grosse brooch ( Dior) will do very nicely. Great haul!!

Abby, I knew that Grosse produced for Dior, but was unsure is it was definitely Dior as its only marked Grosse. Thoughts? And thanks.

No, I already hip checked another lady out of the way today, so I’m banned for a while.  Kidding. And my adrenaline is still pumping!

100% Dior. Henkel and Grosse were the first designers for Christian Dior. There are many avid collectors of Grosse, especially predating the 60s

 Right place,  right time,  lucky you!  💃🏼

 


 Some people collect the Pearl Trifari brooches ( hi Marie ) so definitely check those designs out.   It’s always a GReAT day when you find Boucher.  Your flower looks like a particularly nice 3D one.   

So happy for you!  😊

None of it's my personal style, but it would take a really hard case to turn down Boucher!

Nice score!  The Boucher flower is part of their flower of the month collection.  The Binder Brothers is also a nice piece.  Congrats, again.

What a great shopping trip! The Grosse was the one that jumped out. I’ve only had one piece but it did very well. I had to go look up Binder Bros, I’ve never even heard of them, lol
