1990S Vintage Brass Italian Sun Brooch by Avon

About the Item

This 1990s Vintage Brass Italian Sun Brooch signed Avon is more than just an accessory, it’s a wearable work of art that brings an uplifting, solar-inspired statement to any outfit. The radiant sun design was popular in 1990s fashion accessories, capturing an eclectic, bold aesthetic that resonates with vintage enthusiasts today. This piece can be worn as a standalone accent on a blazer or coat, or included in a layered arrangement with other brooches for a more eclectic style. Italian-made pieces from this era are known for quality and attention to detail, evidenced in the defined facial features and carefully shaped rays. Cast in brass, it has a warm, golden hue reminiscent of actual sunlight, with subtle surface texture to enhance visual depth. Over time, brass patinas naturally, which can give the piece an even richer, vintage character if left unpolished. It's in perfect condition.
