This 2 1-2" leaf style brooch is described in the Napier book by Melinda Lewis as "c. 1960s gold-plated glass foliate design with tourmaline (I say two tone green) colored foiled back crystal stone navettes and filigree leaves." Paired with 1-2" clip back earrings that appear to have a winged bee design, all marked Napier, a huge costume design firm founded @1915
Gotta love GREEN !!!!
Very nice, beautifully set stones !~
Such a lovely set! Well done ????
Sorry, the question marks were supposed to be a smiley face emoji.
This is lovely- bright green fronds that look as though they should be cascading down the wall of a continental villa or jungle waterfall!
Love the green rhinestones!
Thanks Rose for the great compliment, I love green too, esp in the autumn and winter months
Phil very glad you like the stone settings here, Napier designers did take care & mostly prong set for security, love your observations & great comment
Thanx Ken for the super compliments, I agree the two tone green is a nice touch - I googled tourmaline, it's like a deep off color green, I guess the darker shade could be called that (my aunt had a tourmaline mink jacket but that was beige!). About the collections, I read on another post they are limiting them to 100 now or perhaps they are only leaving existing collection posts up, things are always changing here i.e. no more email comment notifications - what I usually do now to check if something has already been posted, I put a name like Trifari brooch/pin in the search box, and hope it is a complete list (not always)
Thanks MrsT for the kind words, even without explaining the question marks I knew you meant them! I don't know why this site doesn't allow emojis, I love them & would use them often, but I think it's because our comments would start to look like phone texting
Fabulous compliments my creative friend Lauren, you always paint such beautiful images for me! This definitely has a cascading waterfall vibe to it, I really appreciate your super insights, thank you
