Love, love, love this charming dimensional figural vintage lion brooch.  The enamel is wonderful, with a beautiful aqua with white and black shading for his mane and tail, opalescent stone or lucite eyelids.  His muzzle and whiskers are inset with glittering crystal faceted rhinestones.  I believe he is sleeping, with his mouth open and his feet crossed.  The enamel is in great condition with minimal wear to the tips of his mane.  The stones are beautiful, with no missing or damaged stones that I can see.  As you can see from the photograph, he is large and very dimensional.  Truly a wonderful find and an excellent addition to any vintage costume jewelry collection!  This guy measures 2 1/4" from top to bottom and 2 1/2" from side to side. I believe is a probably a Coro piece, but could not find anything even similar anywhere.  Most likely quite rare and unique in this fabulous world of vintage costume jewelry! Wonderful, wonderful figural brooch!  PLEASE NOTE:  Although all my jewelry listings will be marked that returns are not accepted (due to eBay's change of policy from 14 day returns to 30 days). If an item is damaged in shipment or there are any condition issues that I missed, please send me a note and a photograph.  No returns will be accepted without a photograph.   We will not accept returns because an item "does not fit" or because the buyer "changed their mind".   We only ship our jewelry in a box, so be sure to check out our other listings and our eBay store items (over 1950, all on sale).  Several pieces of jewelry will ship for the same price as one piece, or jewelry can ship with larger pieces at no extra cost.  We don’t mark up our items by a great amount, so reasonable offers only please for store items. We do have a layaway plan available for items or groups of items totaling $200 or more.  I cannot ship this item to China because I don't have any way to track and cannot ship through eBay global shipping due to the value. I am happy to ship to third party shippers for my international clients as well, and would encourage the use of that service for any items selling for $300 or over for international buyers.   Great low starting bid, and being sold with NO RESERVE.
