When we imagine a vintage brooch, it is a sparkling with rhinestones volumetric decoration of 1950-60s, or elegant brooch with charms in the Victorian style. No less precious and cute are vintage decorations with sense, aimed to be a perfect gift for particular professions, or hobbies. These special “genre” decorations depict figures of fun, or everyday objects that symbolize something. Traditionally, these decorations have been excellent gifts or souvenirs just for mom, sister, or, for example, grandmother, enthusiastic about sewing or knitting. The main purpose of these brooches – to create a good mood.
