1980s Sonia Rykiel Novelty Gold Plated Brooch Printed_cotton_Skirt The bodice of the dressNovelty 1980s Sonia Rykiel gold plated torchiere brooch or so we believe but turn it the other way around and it could be a paint brush! Its a very tactile piece with smooth quality engraving and gold plating. Closes with a C clasp and is marked with the designers signature to the reverse in an oval cartouche stamped plate. A fun and quirky piece in great vintage condition with no issues. MEASUREMENTSWidth 3 in. (7. 6 cm)Depth 0. 4 in. (1 cm)
