Antique Brooches and Pins

A vintage costume brooch or jewelry pin can say a lot about a woman. If her coat has been decorated with a bright and colorful Bakelite brooch pendant, she is signaling her love and affection for the 1900's style. If she is wearing a rhinestone Christmas pin, she may be communicating her fondness for the wonderful holiday Christmas season, and if she is wearing a customized floral pin covered with emeralds, sapphires, and rubies, the message might be that she is elegant.

 Era of Brooches and Pins

From the 1800s, the Georgian era and the Victorian era are quite famous when it comes to antique brooches and pins. The antiques of the Victorian and Georgian era are brilliant for collectors and those who have an interest with the past. The Georgian pins are usually small, and can be worn on light fabrics including lace and cotton, whereas the Victorian pins are bolder and bigger and best for heavier fabrics. 

The era of Edwardian was an era of magnificent brooch and pins which were generally lighter than the Victorian ones. The original Art deco brooches from the 1930s to the 1980s are all wonderful.  They are creative and come in a wide variety of materials and designs.
