The flowers are arranged amongst an abundant spray of overlapping leaves, creating a wonderfully sculptural and three-dimensional design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe warm cream colouring and lightweight moulded construction are characteristic of early celluloid costume jewellery. Its generous proportions make it a fabulous statement brooch and an appealing piece for collectors of early plastics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brooch is unmarked. The material and date are based on its appearance and construction and have not been scientifically verified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures and Details\u003cbr\u003e\nBelieved to date from the 1930s or 1940s\u003cbr\u003e\nEarly moulded plastic, believed to be celluloid\u003cbr\u003e\nWarm cream or faux-ivory colouring\u003cbr\u003e\nThree large daisy-style flowers\u003cbr\u003e\nRaised, textured flower centres\u003cbr\u003e\nDeeply layered leaves and petals\u003cbr\u003e\nHighly dimensional sculptural design\u003cbr\u003e\nLarge statement size\u003cbr\u003e\nLong safety-pin style fastening\u003cbr\u003e\nUnmarked\u003cbr\u003e\nLightweight despite its substantial appearance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements\u003cbr\u003e\nLength: approximately 9 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth at widest point: approximately 5 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum depth: approximately 2 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFair vintage condition with considerable age-related wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are a number of chips, no breaks and missing tips to the petals and leaves, together with small cracks, splits and areas of surface wear on the reverse. The cream colouring has developed some uneven yellowing and discolouration, with scattered marks and ingrained dirt appropriate to its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld adhesive or assembly residue is visible around some of the layered elements and on the reverse. A grey-blue mark is present on one of the leaves at the back. The metal safety-pin style fastening remains attached, although it may be a later replacement or adaptation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe defects are only noticeable on close inspection but do not detract from the brooch’s wonderfully dramatic overall appearance. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the nature of early celluloid, the brooch should be kept away from heat, direct sunlight and moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pretty Vintage Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56862779638146,"sku":null,"price":58.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0333\/6765\/4537\/files\/pretty-vintage-boutique-large-1930s-celluloid-triple-flower-brooch-cream-daisy-floral-spray-art-deco-statement-jewellery-large-1930s-celluloid-triple-flower-brooch-cream-daisy-floral-spray-art-deco-statement-jewellery-1255437116.jpg?v=1787332935","url":"https:\/\/prettyvintageboutique.co.uk\/products\/large-1930s-celluloid-triple-flower-01130","provider":"Pretty Vintage Boutique ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
