Apollo Speaks
On this piece
☉
A large floral brooch with berries from Trifari's Esplanade collection, in a gold-plated finish set with topaz rhinestone. The Esplanade pieces came out once a year at Christmas, in very limited numbers and only to a handful of stores — Macy's flagship at Herald Square, Marshall Field's on State Street — where they were shown to the most loyal customers on velour Trifari trays. As with everything in that line, the back rewards attention nearly as much as the front: the construction is where the money went. Warm, autumnal, and considerably harder to find than the necklaces from the same collection.
