Description

It is easy to fall in love with this rare vintage 1940s "World on the Moon" Italian pin.

This theme pin represents the Italian Opera "Mondo della Luna" and this pin was most likely only sold at Opera houses in Italy and was not made for export. You might look your whole life and never find another pin like this one as production was very limited. The pin has the original paper price hang tag that reads Made in Italy, and the hand written price of 795 Lira.

The pin is made of brilliant 24kt gold plated metal. It is a thin plating, similar to the way in which Spanish Damascene jewelry was made. The gold metal is pierced with tiny die stamp details that creates a very rich, elegant look : another technique very similar to Damascene jewelry. The man is serenading the lady with a mandolin and the lady wears a big hoop Victorian dress and holds a fancy fan in her hand. A moonlight serenade, as the lovers sit in a dreamy light blue enameled crescent moon.

The pin is medium in size at 1 3/4" wide x 1 1/2" tall or 4.4 cm x 3.8 cm. The entire pin is in pristine clean like new unworn condition with no imperfections. The back has the original fine working C clasp.

Comes gift wrapped and shipped in a new presentation jewelry box.

* You can add a gold brooch slider to convert this pin to a pendant by checking the option box.
