This is a rare Alfred Phillipe 1950’s King of Diamonds brooch. I just recently purchased this and got a great deal on it. This piece is in great condition. Back is marked Trifari, Pat. Pend. Thanks for looking.
This is a marvelous brooch. I love it!!
MrsT what a gorgeous classic Trifari Philippe piece, and amazing that you got a great deal as the prices on this type are usually out in the stratosphere, congratulations!
very nice/...
BEAUTIFUL. Neil
Truly a rare find! So glad you got it, that's a collection star if ever there was one.
Ken, thank you so much! I bought a group lot of 12 brooches for $8.99 plus shipping and saw this piece in there. I was not sure that it was Trifari, as it was not listed in auction. When I got it and turned it over and saw that Trifari mark, i was beyond pleased.
Very nice- I'd imagine a whole set of these would be very cool, joker included!
Jscotto, appreciate your kind comment!
Jenni, thank you, was so glad to get!
Ballstonlake, thank you so much!
Roycroft, I am glad you like this piece, thanks for looking :)
Eileen, yes, was so happy this came along :)
Neil, thanks, glad you like!
Plein-air-painter, thank you for the great comment!
Lauren, there is also a queen of diamonds, don’t think there are others though. The joker would have been cool though :)
Eileen, I have seen those sets you talk about. I was so happy this was what I was hoping it was. It was listed at a buy it now, so I took the chance in hopes that it was. Do you have that particular tree posted?
Eileen, I saw the tree you mentioned! Got to love deals like these!
Eileen, maybe that holly leaf will come around sometime. It would be awesome for you to get the whole set. So yes, just keep looking :)
Ken, thanks for the added info and patent number. This piece must have been stashed away for the last 60 + years, because it is in remarkable condition.
Eileen, thank you for the lovely comment! Glad you came back to see again :)
