Vintage Monet Brooch

This vintage Monet brooch is absolutely elegant! The soft yellow lucite "petals" paired with creamy faux pearls and sparkling rhinestones create such a sophisticated, feminine look.

The large flower design features four gorgeous teardrop-shaped yellow lucite cabochons arranged as petals, with smaller pearl accents tucked between them. The center showcases a lustrous round pearl surrounded by brilliant clear rhinestones that form a cross pattern connecting the petals. Those rhinestone-studded "rays" add so much sparkle and dimension! The gold-tone setting ties everything together beautifully.

Monet was one of the most respected costume jewelry companies, known for quality construction and timeless designs. This piece has that classic elegance that never goes out of style. Perfect for adding vintage sophistication to any outfit!

Learning Note: Monet jewelry (founded 1937, peak production 1950s-1980s) is highly collectible today! The company was known for exceptional quality control and classic, elegant designs that rivaled fine jewelry. The combination of lucite, pearls, and rhinestones was a signature sophisticated look of the 1960s-70s. Yellow or butter-toned lucite was popular for its soft, warm glow that complemented both gold settings and pearls perfectly. These substantial floral brooches were considered investment pieces – quality costume jewelry meant to last for years!
