    I received this item through an estate. I have been researching but am very confused. This piece is signed Trifari with Sterling on the bottom side of one wing and design 137200 on the other wing. The research I have done says the jelly belly should be clear with red eyes. I cannot find anything on a clear with pink tint and green eyes. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I am not educated in vintage jewelry.

      You're right on in your research. As the CW article will tell you, jelly bellies were widely copied. Nice brooch!

      Oh oops, sorry I didn't read through as carefully as I should have. Yours is a Trifari, and Trifari were the original makers of jelly bellies. Hm, well if your research tells you there should be a certain color configuration, then either yours is rare or someone replaced the stones? That's my best guess, but am no expert. Still, a very nice brooch! :)
