Vintage butterfly brooches and jewellery display

 Showing my vintage butterfly brooches and bug jewellery

My display for the last few months has been all my butterfly brooches with some other bug jewellery like dragonfly and a large vintage silver moth brooch in filigree. Not for sale as my own collection.

Vintage enamel bee brooch
Vintage enamel bee brooch. Again another bug that I saw in my data base. A bee brooch circa 1990s. Yes already sold a long time ago.
Dragonfly brooch in green enamel
Dragonfly brooch in green enamel and quite large. Brought from a shop in the mid 2000s. I liked the modern Art Deco look. Unfortunately the clip broke on the back shortly after. Still have this somewhere. One day will reuse it.
Pair of vintage enamelled butterfly brooches 1960s

Pair of vintage enamelled butterfly brooches 1960s. They are on the base of the display . Quite large pair in the bright colours. The enamel is clear over a base coat which can include silver and glitter in similar brooches.

Hope you like my butterflies and bugs. Have a great Sunday. Bye for now.
