Description
DeepL TranslateThis collection features three beautiful quality 1980s rhinestone pin brooches set on silver-plated bases, ranging from 5 to 5.5 cm in length. Sourced from unused vintage stock, these pieces are designed to be worn separately or combined for a striking, layered effect.
They look fantastic on a formal jacket but also together on a denim jacket.
Strass, more commonly known today as rhinestones, originated in the 18th century and take their name from Georg Friedrich Strass, an Alsatian jeweller who perfected the art of imitating diamonds. Around 1730, he developed a special type of high-lead-content glass that brilliantly reflected light, giving the illusion of precious stones. Initially cut and polished by hand, these sparkling imitations quickly became fashionable in European courts, especially in France, where they adorned jewellery, clothing, and decorative objects. Over time, “strass” became synonymous with glamour and theatrical sparkle, evolving into the rhinestones widely used in costume jewellery and fashion today.
