Vintage Painted Celluloid Black Whimsical Bird & Umbrella Crystal Pin Mourning

Please do not expect store bought perfect new items! We will never guarantee our items to be in perfect condition, but then you would be paying department store prices! If items are clearly marked, we do not have it acid tested, especially if markings include designers markings.

Unmarked items we have tested. If natural hairline internal cracks in stones, loose settings (that normally happen over the years) bother you, or expect perfect, then you do not want Vintage. Even jewelry that is brand new tends to have flaws. This is all Antique Art Deco/Nouveau, Victorian, Vintage and newer Collectible jewelry, all newer items have been stored and are still part of the humongous estate collection and may have been worn, but minimally. Silver jewelry with stones sometimes loosen over the years, and stones shift and accumulate hairline cracks. This is part of the charm of vintage jewelry.

Anything distracting we will note in our listings, anything damaged we do not list. We have researched all items, but are not experts, and have some great local resources, but please ask questions or share your knowledge too! We do not list anything that we would not wear ourselves!

This darling little pin has been painted black, but you can see blue underneath, more visible on the beak and eye. Appears to be intended as a mourning pin, as most of these were black, also most whimsical figures for a child or sweetheart, also for a child to wear. Celluloid strip on back with pin and C type clasp. Pin measures 1 ½ X 1 inches. It has a center faceted sapphire colored crystal.

Very light delicate pin in good condition. Is excellent, some paint wear on figure and umbrella but will still make a fine addition to your collection.

Take a look at pictures! All condition of items are nice and may only need a gentle cleaning due to dust from not being worn or stored away for quite a few years. As a general rule, we leave all vintage and antique jewelry in their current condition since most desire the items to be received in their lovely vintage or antique condition. Leaving most of the descriptions up to the pictures, so ask any questions and we will be happy to get back to you as soon as we can!
