Older Coro Mint Green Lucite Rhinestone and Gold Enamel Brooch

The Coro Company was arguably the most prolific producer of costume jewelry in the U.S.

They had their finger on the pulse of the American woman throughout the decades and seemingly had something for everyone in nearly every style.

Many fabulous examples still exist today to satisfy the collectors appetite.

Here is an example of an unusual design of AB coated mint green textured leaflets forming a beautiful blossom or weath.

There is a woven detail of matte gold enamel intertwined perhaps to depict ivy vines. Prong set mint green rhinestone dot the center and edges and tinier ones appear near the 'vines' in the center.

I just love this pretty piece, and wanted you to see it.
