An amazing Kirk's Folly Christmas Tree brooch. 1979 company started on kitchen table by 4 siblings and Bloomingdales was their first customer. Business closed recently but these magican 'fairy dust' pins can still be found here and there. See page 89 of Nancy Trowbridge's 'Christmas Tree Pins-O Christmas Tree" book.
Kirk's Folly brooches are especially noted for the many and interesting shapes and gems 'dangling' from the pin itself. Delightful pieces! All are signed by the company.
