Make an unforgettable statement with this stunning mid-century amethyst aurora borealis starburst spray brooch, a vibrant explosion of color and sparkle. Designed with dramatic movement and sculptural flair, this piece features deep amethyst navettes, brilliant clear rhinestones, and radiant AB rounds that flash violet, rose, teal, and gold under the light.
The composition is intentionally dynamic — stones radiate outward in an expressive, abstract spray formation, giving the brooch its signature “burst” effect. The gold-tone metal has a softly aged patina that enhances the vintage richness, while classic open-rivet construction on the back reflects true mid-century craftsmanship.
A bold, dimensional brooch with maximum sparkle and personality — perfect for collectors, evening wear, and anyone who loves standout vintage glamour.
