Vintage Exquisite 1960s Silver-Tone Marcasite Multi Leaf Brooch Signed Floral

Signed Exquisite pieces in silver-tone are less common than their gold-tone counterparts — the brand produced far fewer of them.

A multi-leaf botanical brooch in silver-tone metal, set with Marcasite stones across each leaf. The design fans outward from a central stem, giving the piece real presence without being oversized. Exquisite was a UK-based costume jewelry brand, active from the 1950s through the 1980s, producing mid-range signed pieces in a recognisably British style.

The mark is clear and legible on the reverse — a rectangular cartouche stamped "Exquisite."

The size sits comfortably on a lapel, collar, or coat. It works with black or navy as well as with cream and white — the silver tone reads clean rather than cool. A single brooch worn deliberately, rather than layered.
