BEAUTIFUL MARCEL BOUCHER MB FLEURS de LYS PAVE & PEARL CROWN PIN

The crown pin is Signed with the MB Penquin mark & numbered 5388. 

The pin has a nice rhodium finish with very little age wear I can see.

All the crystals are Present & SPARKLING. They may be a few dis colored stones, but nothing that detracts from the over all piece. There was yellowing glue issue on the baguettes below, but I've taken care of that & they are all sparkling clear now. 

 The Faux Pearls are mostly in great shape. After taking a magnifying glass to them the first one on the left has a tiny spot that is missing some of the pearls coating. Also looks like a pin point of the same on the second one. Pearls are easy to replace if you want them perfect. These is so  minute you can barely see them and don't notice them with the nake eye.

 The pin clasp is in good working order.

The brooch measures 1 1/2 inches wide by 1 1/8 inches tall. 

Overall this Beautiful Marcel Boucher MB Jeweled Crown Pin is in Very, Very Good Vintage Condition!

I found this pin on a well know private jewelry site & their pin was marked BOUCHER instead of MB with Penguin mark. Their reg. price on their site is $225.00. So I'm guessing they did this one around 1941 & they other site is stating theirs was made around 1957. I would think the MB PIECE IS WORTH MORE & more desirable than the later piece. I find that interesting that they re-issued this piece around possibly 16 years later or so. I think they started using the MB Penguin Mark around 1938. Maybe it has something to do with Coronations or wars that took place?
