About the Item

This beautiful vintage floral figural brooch is by iconic costume jewelry brand Kramer Jewelry, circa 1950s. Five silver tone flowers adorn this piece, with clear crystal rhinestones on each petal and a ruby red colored crystal rhinestone in the center of each flower. The abstract leaf base is gold-plated for a unique mixed metal look. Sweet and feminine, this piece makes a wonderful addition to your vintage jewelry collection. ABOUT KRAMER JEWELRY: Founded in New York City at the height of World War II, Kramer Jewelry Creations produced intricate and artistic pieces out of gilt metal, rhinestones, glass, and enamel. Louis Kramer, who started the company in 1943, was later joined by his brothers, Morris and Harry, as he tapped into the burgeoning costume-jewelry market. Kramer himself designed many of the company's pieces, many of which were floral designs. In the 1950s and '60s, Kramer was hired to produce this costume jewelry for Christian Dior. Kramer's ornate Dior pieces, with their cascading Swarovski aurora borealis, petal-shaped pastes, and baroque faux pearls, built upon the company's obsession with craftsmanship and organic, romantic design, achieving a high level of elegance and sophistication in the process.
