Large Vintage Leaf-Shaped Brooch with Yellow and White Rhinestones – USA, circa 1940

This striking American brooch from the 1940s is a beautiful example of nature-inspired costume jewelry, where botanical design merges with the brilliance of rhinestones to create a piece that is both theatrical and elegant.

Crafted in silver-tone metal, the brooch depicts a large, stylized leaf with a soft, flowing shape. Its dynamic appearance is enhanced by the presence of large, bright yellow rhinestones—brilliant-cut and sun-toned—alternating with white rhinestones that define the edges and enhance the overall sparkle. This refined yet bold color combination is typical of mid-century American jewelry, which often balanced natural inspiration with a touch of glamour.

With its generous size (9 cm x 6 cm), the brooch is designed to stand out: perfect for wearing on coats, blazers, daytime or evening dresses, or even as an accent on fabric handbags or scarves. Its asymmetrical and fluid design gives it a versatile yet distinctive personality.

Fitted with its original clip-back, it offers a secure hold on various types of fabric, as was common in American wartime jewelry production.
