Vintage Juliana Pink Lucite Molten Metal Brooch IIJJ#5326
A striking Vintage Juliana (DeLizza & Elster) brooch featuring five softly colored pale pink domed Lucite cabochons set into a dramatic textured gold-tone molten metal style casting.
This unusual design has a bold sculptural look, with the rounded pink cabochons rising from an organic, highly textured framework that almost resembles coral or molten metal. The contrast between the warm gold-tone finish and the soft blush-pink cabochons gives the brooch a look that is both substantial and feminine.
One of the things that makes this brooch especially interesting is the casting itself. The openwork, heavily textured gold-tone construction is characteristic of the bold later Juliana designs that collectors enjoy for their dimensional presence and distinctive style.
A blue cabochon color variation of this same design is also known, making this pink version a wonderful companion colorway within the same design family.
