This stylized flower brooch was made by Danecraft, most likely in the 1950s. It features swirling petals in a textured gold-filled metal. Danecraft was officially started in 1934 by Victor Primavera Sr., but its roots stem from the designs of Victor and his father in Italy. Danecraft produced high quality sterling, vermeil, and gold-filled jewelry over the years and they are currently located in Providence, Rhode Island, the costume jewelry capitol of the United States.
