Gold Filigree Monet Crescent Brooch -

Elegant gold-tone filigree brooch featuring a crescent motif. Lightweight and eye-catching. Perfect for adding a touch of gold to any outfit. This is a classic piece of mid-century costume jewelry from the 1960s to 1970s. It features an asymmetrical, abstract crescent swirl pattern common in Modernist and Mid-Century Modern (MCM) jewelry design. The design relies heavily on texture play—juxtaposing an intricate, diamond-patterned openwork lattice on the lower half against smooth, high-polish tiered ribbons on top.      Monet was legendary for its heavy triple-gold-plating process, which gave their costume jewelry an exceptionally durable, real-gold look that resists tarnishing over decades.
