Description
This charming vintage set features two matching fish brooches with textured metal bodies and bright red rhinestone eyes. Their flowing fins and dimensional design give them a classic mid-century tropical and nautical-inspired look. One brooch is in slightly better condition than the other. The second shows some finish chipping, as visible in photos, but both remain in good wearable vintage condition and display beautifully together. The metal tone appears gold, though it may lean silver in certain lighting, giving these pieces a versatile mixed-metal look. ✧ Details Era: Vintage (Mid–Late 20th Century) Quantity: Set of 2 brooches Material: Gold/Silver-tone metal with rhinestone eye Height: Approx. 2 inches each Width: Approx. 1.5 inches each Weight: Approx. 17.12 grams per brooch Design: Textured angelfish/tropical fish motifThis charming vintage set features two matching fish brooches with textured metal bodies and bright red rhinestone eyes.

These whimsical designs were often worn as statement accessories, celebrating leisure, vacations, and resort-style living. Textured metal fish brooches with rhinestone accents were commonly produced by American and European costume jewelry makers during this era, making sets like this a fun example of mid-century novelty jewelry. 👗 Styling Notes Perfect on denim jackets, cardigans, and blazers Great accent for coastal, beachy, or resort-inspired outfits Style one on a lapel and one on a handbag or scarf Beautiful with white, navy, turquoise, or coral tones Fun collectible pair for vintage novelty jewelry lovers These brooches work wonderfully as conversation pieces and add playful vintage charm to both casual and dressy looks.
