Vintage Ruby Red Chunky Rhinestone Brooch – Gold-Tone & Pink Accents

This brooch is unapologetically glamorous. A bold cluster of deep ruby-red round rhinestones flows across a gold-tone setting, accented by soft pink rhinestones for depth and brilliance. The contrast of the saturated red with the shimmering pink stones gives this piece gorgeous fire and dimension.

This brooch was designed to stand out. It has that coveted thick-cast metalwork that is characteristic of higher-end mid-century costume jewelry—nothing flimsy or lightweight. The workmanship and stone setting show intention and precision, and the raised profile creates dramatic sparkle from every angle.
