Enchanting Vintage Beadwork Artisanal Brooch with Porcelain Doll Face

Enchanting Vintage Beadwork Artisanal Brooch with Porcelain Doll Face


Discover a masterpiece of beadwork artistry with our handcrafted vintage bead brooch, a wearable piece of art that exudes whimsy and charm. This unique brooch features a delicate porcelain doll face, meticulously hand-painted with subtle shades and intricate detailing, capturing a serene expression that will enchant all who gaze upon it.

Encasing the face is an exquisite hood of beadwork, woven together from an assortment of vintage beads. The rich, golden-brown threads create a perfect backdrop for the vibrant purple accent beads that add a touch of playful colour to the piece. Glistening among the woven tapestry are dazzling sequins and rhinestones, each one carefully placed to catch the light and sparkle with every movement.

At the heart of the design lies a captivating golden wheel, a symbol of continuity and connection, which anchors the brooch and adds an element of geometric interest. Suspended gracefully below are two tiers of shimmering beads, resembling droplets of morning dew on blades of grass, leading the eye to the exquisite leaf-shaped charms that dance delicately at the end of this exceptional piece.

Measuring approximately 4 inches in length, this brooch is the perfect size to adorn a lapel, scarf, or hat, adding an artistic touch to any ensemble. The reverse side of the brooch is as thoughtfully designed as the front, with a secure pin backing that ensures this wearable art stays in place wherever you choose to showcase it.

This brooch is not only a stunning accessory but also a statement of sustainable fashion. By incorporating vintage beads and materials, it carries with it a history and a soul that cannot be replicated. This piece is perfect for the collector of unique, handcrafted jewelry, or as a special gift for someone who appreciates the beauty of artisanal craft.

Unless the item is listed as a 'new' item, evidence of normal age/use should be expected. The photos on our listings are never stock photos as we take all of our own photos, so what you see is what you get. Please look over your desired item closely before purchasing.
Now, we mostly sell vintage jewellery and "new old stock" that has never been worn, that come out of various estates. This means that it has been pre-owned. That means that it could have some light wear, and possibly some tarnish. IF there are any flaws, such as missing stones, or damaged stones, we will definitely make that clear in the listing description. We just need our customers to understand that we generally do not sell brand new items.
Our shop has a good working knowledge of vintage jewellery, as most of what we sell has been pre-owned and will thus have some form of wear. Please use common sense when bidding. We cannot possibly cover every detail in a listing, and will thus describe the listings as best as we can. For example, shades of blue are subjective and so are concepts of what looks "too good" to be vintage, or what is "too worn" to be acceptable to a collector, as everyone has their own tastes.
If you have specific needs, do your part, and contact me.
We do not normally clean many of our vintage items as most antique jewellery collectors and enthusiasts prefer that they are kept with the integrity of the piece and patina that occurs naturally over time. This particular piece was gently cleaned with a soft cloth. No harsh chemicals were used to clean this piece.
