Well Patty good to hear from you! I love brooches especially the 50s ones. Here's one of my favorite Florida souvenir  60s made out of shells..

Yes Patty, I have it on a toss pillow along with many others just to enjoy. I'll put up some more tomorrow,  today I was busy cleaning and organizing my she-shed.  I landed a huge, I mean huge ceramic christmas tree with light base and large base ( shhhhh $5 bucks) so it went out there to be protected!

@silverstatetreasureboxes  I will  try to get some photos of the ones I have , One made it to the Juliana site 🙂

 

I would be so afraid of that one breaking for you... I have one that is ceramic and I barely even take it out of the box I have it in.

 

Aww a She Shed I want  one of those!

    Here's a couple more to show you from a line of catalog home shopping parties called Judy lee. Some are signed and some are not. This company started in 1949 in Chicago and became popular in the 1950s-70s.

    I will show the back of the signed one and warning..if you suffer from Trypophobia look away! ( fear of small holes)

 and the back

 Judy Lee's siggy will often be located on the bar clasp as above.

     This brooch is unsigned vvv

 very pretty and delicate but I find the metal on the leaf very flimsy and bendable.

@silverstatetreasureboxes  have you tested for gold? Maybe is flimsy because it could be gold?

Well - how nice! I like that trend. Hopefully people like vintage Swarovski brooches - I think they are unique and very nice quality.

My magnet sticks to it bigtime so not gold.

I found some more that I'll share tomorrow and they are real beauties!

@epowerbargains 

I agree, Swarovski ones are special, pricing a necklace by them right now for the thrift shop. Thanks for posting!
