This 2" flying fish brooch has pearly green enamel and one turquoise eye, with a goldtone framework and setting. By Gem-Craft of Providence RI which was founded in 1945, this fish with craft + copyright mark ca 1970s
I love the saturated colour due to using a beautiful metallic green colour !~
Oh, I love this flying fish brooch!!
Enamel and gold outline look great on this fish! Nice find
Oooh gorgeous flying fish! I adore his lovely green and blue, or dark teal colour and his lovely flowing fins. He's definitely my favorite upload of yours this week, particularly his really elegant curving shape- he's diving back into the sea now, after doing a long flying jump! :)
Thanking you all for the thoughtful love

Thank you Phil for your awesome comment about the enamel, yes it sort of has a metallic look to it as well as a nice glaze that enhances the color
Scott thank you for your delightful comment and I'm so glad you loved this piece, all the Gem-Craft animals are so well made and eye catching
Thanks so much Searching for your fantastic praise for this flying fish & for my post, you are super nice & I am so happy you found this piece exciting, I thought it's a most unusual fish and pose, it seems to really be in motion jumping out of the water
MrsT isn't that a cool design with the golden honeycomb-type frame over the enamel, a very original idea. Thank you for your wonderful comment
Oh Lauren I'm really glad when you have a fave upload of mine & enjoyed this fishy! You're right it is a teal blue & green combo, the face is blue-green then the body all green - I think they wanted the fish's head to stand out. Those curvy fins are really great, and I tried to get a good picture of him diving, these fish in real life are like poetry in motion. Thank you as always for your fabulous praise
Thank you Carmen for the love for this flying fish, very glad that you liked it and always most grateful
Maybe it’s because I’m a Pisces that I love anything to do with the water..:-)
