Description

View Horse Head Brooch Vintage Brass Heavy Solid Equestrian Western Lapel Pin with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Striking horse head silhouette with minimalist, sculptural style. This bold vintage brooch is cast in heavy solid brass, featuring a stylized horse head with a sculptural, minimalist silhouette. The weight in hand tells you everything: this is no lightweight costume piece—it’s built to last, and made to be noticed. According to family lore, this brooch once belonged to a woman named Lila, who was raised on a working ranch in Montana in the 1960s. Her father gave it to her the day she led her first horse solo. From that day on, she wore it proudly—first on her denim jacket, then her show coat—through rodeos, trail rides, and county fairs. The brooch became her quiet badge of confidence. Unmarked, but clearly handmade or studio-cast, this piece likely dates to the 1960s–1970s when artisan brass jewelry saw a resurgence in American Western and modernist design circles. The deeply textured surface, substantial thickness, and golden patina all speak to quality and craft.
