    Can someone help identify this Emmons brooch - pin and the year it was made? It is quite unusual and should be easily found in reference books, which I don't own. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      I own the pin but the photos are not mine. Here though is the back photo from one online (added above). This person listed theirs as a "comet shape".

      Possibly a chevron shape?
    5. Huffstutler Huffstutler, 8 years ago
      I see many listed as a boomerang shape.

      Great brooch! I agree that it's a 50s boomerang motif; very popular and cool style.

      This was identified through Emmons books... unimaginatively called "Twin Pins", it came as a set of two and is from 1965.
