A Touch of Elegance & Beauty with Vintage Inspired Brooches

Brooches have been around since ancient times. Originally used to hold clothing together at certain points, today it is a fashion accessory that can be worn with almost anything and anywhere. These brooches are vintage inspired and remind us of the beauty of jewelry in past times. Today, anyone can own and wear gorgeous jewelry. It is no longer reserved for royalty or the wealthy. Of course, these are not diamonds and fine gems, but they certainly resemble them and rhinestones are a lot less expensive to purchase which allows us to own a variety of white or colored jewelry.

How About Reptile Rhinestone Brooches and Pins

I love this little guy! The alligator rhinestone brooch is made from lead-free alloy so he is not harmful even to sensitive skin unlike the real creature would be if he rubbed up against you. This silver-tone brooch is beautifully accented with green rhinestone crystals to replicate the color of the reptile. This alligator doesn’t scare me, but I will admit, a real life alligator, up close and personal, would scare me half to death. He would sure be a lot of fun to wear! I can only imagine the reactions I would get when people got close enough to identify that shiny thing on my coat or blouse.

Best Animal Brooches – Rhinestone Jewelry

Pandas are extremely popular and they are so very cute in real life and as jewelry! This panda brooch is made of silver alloy and is embedded with both clear and black rhinestones.

Zebras certainly have their admirers too. I know several people who claim the zebra as their favorite zoo animal. This zebra is made of silver alloy metal. His white stripes are rhinestones and his black stripes are painted on which also adds a bit of depth to the piece.

The combination of black and white is very stylish and popular in fashion. As such, not only could you wear your favorite animal, but the cute panda or zebra would also be a winning accessory.

The phoenix is more of a statement or testimony piece. Not only is it a beautiful bird, but it symbolizes survival for some, rebirth for others, but always a symbol of raising above adversity.

Either of these rhinestone animal brooches would truly be a great gift idea for anyone who loves animals, but especially for someone who has a special appreciation for that particular creature.

Classic Floral Brooches – Best in Rhinestone Jewelry

We’ve had a lot of fun with the insects and animal rhinestone brooches, but I do want to end this article with the brooches we are probably more accustomed to seeing. Floral brooches add great beauty and reflect our love for flowers when we wear them. Sometimes, we see a brooch that has a very obvious flower like the lotus shown below. Other times we see a more abstract floral design. They are all beautiful!

The hand painted pearlescent enamel flower is a pretty brooch that is designed to add a touch of beauty to your day. It has a shiny silver tone plated finish and has embedded rhinestone crystals in the center and on the tips of each petal to made it shine on even the darkest day. This flower brooch would be a beautiful accessory and would look gorgeous with absolutely anything.

The blue Floral Petal brooch pin offers a more modern design on an old theme. Diamante, rhinestone, Austrian crystal – these terms are all interchangeable to describe imitation gems. This is a fine example of how affordable gorgeous jewelry can be in today marketplace.

Who says floral brooches are old-fashioned? They may well remind us of jewelry from bygone days, but all of the floral brooches featured here are excellent examples of how flower brooches are not a thing of past. Sometimes they are exactly what you need to brighten your day or to add that finishing touch to your outfit.

Oh, and these are floral gifts that would never die. They would always be a beautiful reminder of the giver anytime they are worn.
