Vintage Tropical Island Natural Shell Magnolia GardiniaFlower Brooch Lapel Pin Boutonniere, Mid Century Cruise Resort, Palm Beach Glamour Style

This elegant 3 dimensional flower is part of a small estate collection that I purchased a couple of years ago. Each piece treasured and neated stored from each travel from the late 40’s til around the early 70s. All shell jewelry, tourism in nature to a certain extent ….mostly South Pacific some came right home into the parks of the United States as shell jewel was quite popular and is so pretty. And, as was shell collecting, which is now frowned upon if not illegal on most beaches now- which I discovered after finding a pretty empty shell snorkel Ming - excitedly on a recent trip and being told that I had to put it back … you can buy shells & shell jewely still but it must be from those licensed to do so on most islands. These shells are unique and pretty and deserve to continue to be treasured and worn - they are lovely. & The color looks so nice with warm skin or a tan!

In excellent collected vintage condition - this is the slightly smaller one of the two that I have listed and measures approximately 2.75”x 2”

I am showing earrings that are listed separately which can be purchased together - I thought they paired so well at a discount. check for links.

Arrives ready to gift nicely 🎀

perfect gift for mom or an alternative corsage of Boutonniere- especially it keeping one fresh is an issue … This is a stunning piece. estimating its age 1950s /60s.
