Vintage Gold Tone Textured Starburst Brooch

Description
Five feathered rays burst outward from a polished pinwheel center, like a star caught at the moment it flares across the night sky. Made in the 1960s–1970s, this brooch pairs finely etched Florentine-style texture with smooth, sculpted swirls, a contrast the era loved. Open cutouts between the rays keep it light and airy. Wear it on a coat lapel, a scarf, or a winter sweater for a bit of celestial glow.
