They sold to department stores, jewellery stores, and also mail order. Their business closed in 1957, and over that 10 year period developed an excellent reputation for quality jewellery.  During war time metal shortages meant that the Government restricted all base metals for military use.  It was a time when quality costume jewellery was produced in sterling and marked as such - sterling silver plated with a thin layer of gold (92.5% pure silver). There is slight wear to the gold veneer on this special brooch but nothing that detracts from its beauty. The shape is a floral spray with three \"flower heads\" with baguette cut rhinestones in red, green, and blue. There is a firm roll over safety clasp to the back.  An authentic historic piece gift boxed by Vintageonline.  Perfect to give any outfit a gorgeous lift.
