Description

The listing, Lot of 3 Vintage Lapel Pins (2 are Angels!) has ended.

This listing is for a lot of three lapel pins, good for going to church, weddings, funerals, whatever a lapel pin is worn for!
I'm not sure of the age on these, and while they are gold, I believe they are gold-plated. I do not know if these are 14k. My guess would be yes, they are, and the rose appears to have green resin covering the leaves and a red resin center.
These are definitely vintage, as they came from my stepmother's mother making them older than 20 years! The style of each pin alone gives clues to how old it is. Nowadays we use rhinestones or small lab-created gemstones to accent jewelry. Prior to the 1970's many designers used brightly-colored resin to simulate gemstones, making them more accessible to the public. (Sorry, that's the result of my Graphic Design homework lol!) I'm going to bed.
