Description
Large 1960s vintage mid century Mod fashion flower pin by Robert in vivid brilliant orange, yellow, deep black and pink colors. **The camera picked up the leaves in the back as looking red but they are bright neon pink and showy. Other than 2 tiny specks of missing black paint which is common for Robert pins it is in excellent overall condition. The flecks are very, very tiny, 1-2mm and easily touched up if you like. Size is 3 1/2″ tall north to south by 2 1/4″ wide east to west. Robert was famously known for mid century Mod fashion in the 1960s and 1970s. This one stands out and is very showy; great for any large lapel, coat, fur etc…especially if you like vintage “flower power” jewelry. Lovely addition for your vintage statement jewelry collection.
