A stunning example of the popularity of everything French in 1950s fashion and pop culture! There were many versions of the Emperuer Napoleon Brooch with the most sought after being made from actual a French Napoleon coin.

This particular one is a gold Napoleon pin has a fold down wreath that operates as both an eyeglass holder and/or an medal holder. This 50s French brooch is likely
Brass with a gold
Plating and the coin if original (we are not coin experts and do not protest to be!) would be made of 92% gold. We do not have a precious metal reader so we can’t be sure.

It is in excellent near pristine condition
With very little wear!
