Vintage Articulating Rhinestone, green eyed Lion Brooch

This circa 1950s articulated lion brooch is bold, dramatic, and beautifully constructed, an extraordinary example of vintage design where craftsmanship meets presence. Finished in a rich gold tone and adorned with sparkling rhinestones and emerald green glass eyes, the sculpted lion features intricate detailing throughout, from the dimensional mane to the fluidity of its form. Designed with a fully articulated body, each segment moves naturally, giving the piece a lifelike quality that’s both striking and rare. The double pin back ensures secure, balanced wear, thoughtfully constructed to support its substantial size and weight. Unsigned, yet unmistakably high quality, this is the kind of piece that stands alongside higher-end vintage costume jewelry, collected for its design, craftsmanship, and undeniable impact. It measures 8.5 inches in length.
