Vintage Gold Plated Tone Enameled Wind Blown Palm Tree Floridian Californian 1970s 1980s

$35.00

This is a vintage gold plated 1980s enameled palm tree pin blowing in the wind. The green enameling is lightly applied so it has a metallic green look. Looks like it was a specific style of artistry like the type of watercolor “enamel wash” attributed to Monet but there is no marking.

AI: “Monet is the most renowned vintage costume jewelry house famous for this signature style. They perfected the “watercolor” or “wash” of enamel, using highly thinned, translucent enamels to softly tint the textured metal rather than completely opaquely covering it.”

Size is 2 1/2″ north to south by 1 1/2″ inches across the body. Overall condition is excellent. Being well made and very pretty this is a lovely unusual wind blown palm tree for your vintage costume jewelry collection. Large and showy for any lapel.
