Beauty takes many forms ... this vintage Coro pin/brooch is a recent addition to my collection, a treasured gift from a friend. The stunning piece is studded with pave' rhinestones and features the Twin Spikes of Wheat Sheaves theme. The age of the piece is currently TBD.
Pave' "Definition: a word of French origin derived from paver or "to pave"; used to describe a stone setting technique where gemstones or rhinestones are set as closely together as possible on a metal base; technique first used in the early 1900s in fine jewelry and copied prolifically in costume jewelry thereafter
Pave' Pronunciation: pah-vay"
