This is what made me fall for brooches and costume jewelry! I have yet to come across another one like it! I'VE SEARCHED AND SEARCHED trying to find any information on this piece but no luck. Started a search tonight and came across this page and wondered if maybe you've seen it or know anything about this guy! I call him the Owl turk hehe. It is hand painted (looked under magnify glass) only other thing i could find was a similar in the hand painted "mosaic" ??? pattern. This guy is my baby!
Thanks for letting me share!

Wow, what a stunning piece. I did a quick search and found the following picture that is not the same at all but has the hand painted mosaic.

This was the description of that picture:
brooch in yellow, aqua green and coral colored glass beads and rhinestones surround a multi-colored glass oval, circa 1965, 3-1/2". A piece like this can be seen in the book "Bijoux" by Dena F. Cera on page 313.
Maybe you can look at the Bijoux book... page 313

Absolutely gorgeous! I call them "cookie teardrop" :)
