Vintage 1940s Coro Craft Sterling Silver Enamel Honey Bee Flowers Fur Pin Clip

Description

View Vintage 1940s Coro Craft Sterling Silver Enamel Honey Bee Flowers Fur Pin Clip with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. It is marked STERLING and CORO. See photos. The stones seem to be different colors all over and mostly clear. Apparently, this is a common issue with these pieces to lose a tiny stone or two but overall, it looks really nice. Welcome to my ebay store This listing is for another piece of my mom's vintage jewelry, stored for many years in a jewelry box. I remember my mom wearing this pin on her mink coat long ago! My mom was a student at the Fashion Institute of Technology way back when and Loved her clothes and costume jewelry. One of the greatest generation, who knew how to dress. This listing is for a lovely Coro bumblebee on some flowers, less common than the typical bumblebee brooch. It is marked STERLING and CORO.  See photos. The enameling is very nice, particularly the wings of the bee which have retained amazing detail, but there is a bit of loss on the head's black enamel. The stones seem to be different colors all over and mostly clear. This is sold in vintage almost antique condition as you see. Apparently, this is a common issue with these pieces to lose a tiny stone or two but overall, it looks really nice. The flowers are enamel color that has held up nicely with tiny stones and there are also stones on the bee. The pin/brooch measures 1 1/4" by 1 3/4". It will come in a gauze gift bag. THANKS for supporting my shop! I would describe as good/very good condition overall for the age. See all photos for condition. You can see where I hold a pin to indicate a missing stone. I am not sure if the top center above the flowers is part of the design or had a stone it is hard to tell. Some refer to this piece as a dress clip others a fur clip. It has the two short prongs to grab material, and they are on a hinge. Ships from my smoke free home, thanks for shopping with us! Condition: Pre-owned - Good.
