Silver Forest brooch pin, new made in Vermont. Mother of Pearl.
New, handcrafted in Vermont. Last picture is one I found online that still has the Mother of Pearl sticker. “Silver Forest brand brooch, handcrafted in Vermont, featuring a celestial design with a crescent moon, stars, and what appears to be a mother-of-pearl accent. Mother-of-pearl, also known as nacre, is a substance formed as an inner layer within the shells of certain mollusks, known for its iridescent and shimmering appearance. It is composed of tiny, stacked platelets of crystallized mineral compounds bound together by proteins. This material is often used in jewelry making and decorative arts due to its unique luster and delicate hues, which can range from white and pink to creamy yellow and cool green.
