Rare bold vintage Lea Stein of Paris France Serigraphy brooch:
~ Hard to find masterpiece in fantastic eye popping colors
~ Round in shape
~ Loaded with life and movement
~ Serigraph picture features a female figure and a shower of lily flowers
~ Portrait executed in orange, aqua and teal blue green shades
~ Subtly striped lilac purple frame
~ Classic "V" shaped pin back without any marks - indicative of her earliest pieces.
~ These were made in the late 1960's and early 1970's and are very hard to find, highly sought after, and pricey as they were made before a workshop fire in the 70's destroyed the original patterns and these gorgeous serigraphies were never made again

CONDITION = Great vintage condition - no damage or quirks found to mention.

Hardware in good working order. A great find in an excellent state of preservation.
"A picture is worth a thousand words"
Please view & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged and not mentioned. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for "vintage charm" so do utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all, as they are an integral part and extension of the description.
