A luminous green rhinestone floral brooch from the 1940s. This unsigned piece features dimensional petals and brilliant emerald glass stones, set in a sculpted silver-tone setting with classic Retro Moderne styling. The craftsmanship and materials suggest early Coro or Boucher manufacture.
Learning Note: During the early 1940s, American designers like Coro and Boucher created dramatic, dimensional brooches using pot metal and rhinestones. These pieces often went unsigned when sold through department store contracts but exhibit the same craftsmanship and design vocabulary as their marked counterparts.
