Butterfly sachet pin age help

I could only find one like it. Maybe I'm using the wrong word when I say sachet. Any help appreciated.

Re: Butterfly sachet pin age help

Interesting.  It does look like it has some kind of filler stuffed inside of it?  Perhaps it`s a vinagrette pin?  

 

Dunno..just guessing

Re: Butterfly sachet pin age help

I sold something similar many years ago. Mine was a spider with cotton inside the body. I'll see if I can find a picture. I called it a perfume pin and thought it was pre WWII. Yours might be newer as it looks heavier construction.

I went to my FB and found the Title I used. I haven't found a picture yet. I think, if I remember correctly, the C Clasp was the paddle shape.

Re: Butterfly sachet pin age help

With your help, I have found perfume and "scent bug" so now I have some more items out there to get a feel for age. They are saying 1940s. I don't know why this feels newer than that to me. I was thinking 1960s. Anyone else? I will see if I can find more info before I list it. The little stones are super sparkly.

I think it maybe from where someone has tried to enhance it with paint. From what I have read they put the stones in after it was painted not before. The sloppy paint job looks added to me.

My Photobucket Account is not available. I went to sign in and received a message I had to sign up for a package or they would delete 632 images. Probably don't have the image anymore 😞 😬

Tables on the Rhinestones look small which points to earlier piece. It might be the rivets that have you thinking newer?

Re: Butterfly sachet pin age help

yes. Since I made that last post and using different keywords I found Coro made a ladybug like this in the 1940s. Also found several just like mine. Cold enamel, all had some chipping or wear to the enamel. So, 1940s is when I think they made these.

 

Thank you all!!
