Vintage Trifari American Brand Gold Locomotive Brooch Pin

▰▰▰▰▰▰TRIFARI▰▰▰▰▰▰ Trifari, a name synonymous with vintage jewelry, was founded in 1910 by Gustav Trifari, who hailed from a family of goldsmiths in Naples, Italy. The brand reached new heights under the guidance of Alfred Philippe, its most influential designer from 1930 to 1968, who had previously worked with Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels. Trifari pieces are renowned for their craftsmanship, often rivaling fine jewelry, and are distinguished by their unique designs and understated elegance. Despite navigating several economic downturns, Trifari eventually became part of the Monet Group and was acquired by Liz Claiborne in 2000. ▰▰▰▰▰▰VINTAGE PIECE DETAILS▰▰▰▰▰▰ Brand Marking: TRIFARI© Era: 1955-1969 Material: Gold-plated alloy Dimensions: Approx. 2 × 7.6 cm Condition: Good, with minor signs of age Notes: Features a safety clasp closure.
