Hollycraft-Iris Glass Love Bird Brooch

Give a pink jewel as a gift? A vintage brooch of two friendly love birds. The tummy has an iris glass with pale pink, green, and blue lines attached to it.

“Iris” in Iris Glass is the name of the Greek goddess of the rainbow. It is a reproduction of rainbow quartz, a natural rhinestone produced from the Rhine River around the 17th century, and colored stripes can be seen inside the clear glass.

On the back of the brooch is the Hollycraft stamp, which was founded in New York in 1938 as the Hollywood Jewelry Manufacturing Company and continued until 1971. Hollycraft is a brand popular with collectors for its pastel-colored rhinestone jewelry and Christmas-themed brooches.
