Hi CW Gang:
Nice vintage brooch marked SARAH COVENTRY - CANADA. Marked on the back. Nice flower starburst design. probably from around the 1970.s era when Sarah Coventry was intriducted via "Home Parties". Just like Tupperware parties people had back then. Simple but clean design
Thanks for LOOKING // LOVING !!

Very detailed brooch! Nice one!
@Mrstyndall - Thanks for the fast tap on the button and the beautiful comment. I note that this one says CANADA on the back, where some of the others do not. Looked to see if that would help me date it, but Nope.....LOL
Hi Rose, your lovely pin is named Peta-Lure, from 1962. :)
Ah, Sarah Coventry...still undervalued for reasons I'll never understand.
Did you know that the parites started right after WWII, because women lost their jobs to returning veterans? Also I read that at one point, Sarah Coventry was selling 35,000 pieces of jewelry a day!! They designed the crown for Miss Universe! So maybe the reason is that there is so much still out there...but your smart Rose, as is Ken, to swoop up these beauties while you still can....
Beautiful Brooch...Ah Sarah!
