CROWN TRIFARI MING ELEPHANT PIN

TRIFARI Alfred Philippe PEARL, BELLY MING ELEPHANT BROOCH. This BROOCH IS INCREDIBLY RARE, and iti is made of gold plated metal, faux baroque pearl belly, black enamel, green and clear rhinestones. It is marked TRIFARI with a crown over the "T".





THE PIECE IS DATED 1942, AS STATED BY BRUNIALTI IN HIS BOOK, PAGE 125 PTENT # 131.534 ALFRED PHILIPPE, NEW YORK, MARCH 10TH 1942. IT MEASURES 3"X 2".

THE BROOCH IS MISSING SOME OF THE ORIGINAL GREEN RHINESTONES ON THE BELLY, I DECIDED NOT TO REPLACE. IT'S A VERY EASY FIX, BUT I LEAVE THE CHOICE TO YOU.
