@tmcvintage1: WAIT A MINUTE… 👀 I KNEW I HAD SEEN THIS BEFORE. There is something SO satisfying about finding a vintage piece of jewelry—and then discovering it pictured in a reference book. And there he is. The Rice-Weiner “Chinese Water Boy” brooch, designed by Louis C. Mark in 1941. The design was patented that same year, and examples are documented as collectible book pieces. This is exactly why I love researching vintage jewelry. Sometimes you don’t just find a brooch… you find a little piece of jewelry history. ✨ And YES—this fabulous 1941 figural brooch is AVAILABLE NOW on our website. 💚 find him on our website themarialvacollection.com NEW ARRIVALS #VintageJewelry #CostumeJewelry #RiceWeiner #VintageBrooch #JewelryCollector
