Manufacturer: Buch & Deichmann Jewelry
Wonderful large vintage signed costume jewelry pin or brooch. This is a deep red, almost maroon colored, parrot made of molded celluloid or plastic and having a single clear rhinestone for his eye (he/she is shown from a side view). The bird pin is fully marked on the backside in raised letters, "Buch & Deichmann, Copenhagen, Denmark" with an insignia having "B&D" in it. The brooch has a simple metal closure glued on the backside with a curved bar.
Measures about 5 1/2 inches greatest length, about 2 1/2 inches greatest width and sits about 3/8 inch high when laying on a table. This came out of a home and is definitely vintage. We think it dates to the 1960s-1980s at the latest, and likely from the 1960s-1970s (from some internet research) but don't know for certain.
We've provided 8 images to try and show from all angles, including close-ups of details and the manufacturer marking. The Buch & Deichmann mark was hard to photograph, but you can get an idea of how it looks from our two images. The camera lighting causes white "hot spots" on the smooth parrot surfaces. There are molded details for his feathers on the body and tail, as well as for his head and single claw which is shown. Please use the zoom feature to examine closely.
Excellent vintage condition with no chips, breaks or pieces missing. This probably could use a light cleaning as there is some dust, but we are selling as is/as found. It likely was worn and there is some evidence of age/use/wear via some tiny scratches, light spots, etc., as to be expected with older pieces, but you won't see any of this when worn at all. You can see from the backside view that the edges of the pin here have a dark blackish coloring as made, so sometimes this makes it look from the front side as if an edge is dark (such as at the claw) but there is nothing wrong here. The pin clasp turns easily but should be sufficient for wearing.
Just a lovely vintage parrot pin or bird pin which would catch attention when worn on a sweater or scarf. Would also make a great gift for any bird-lover or parrot lover.
We are listing many other pieces of jewelry and would be pleased to ship multiple items together to provide postage savings. If you are interested in more than one, please contact us prior to inputting the order. The system has been set up to calculate shipping for only one jewelry listing and will not automatically provide the postage savings you should get when shipping more than one item in the same package. We will need to calculate that for you. |
