Vintage 1980s Silver-Tone Figural Bear Brooch Animal Lapel Pin Costume Jewelry

Figural animal brooches in plain silver-tone casting were a staple of 1980s costume jewelry — this bear is a good example of the type.

A small silver-tone brooch in the shape of a bear in a playful reclining pose, cast in metal with surface detail on the face and paws. No stones or enamel — the form carries the piece. The casting is solid and the finish remains bright with no significant tarnish to the front.

The reverse shows a standard pin-back closure in working order.

Small enough to sit on a lapel or a knit collar without pulling the fabric. Works with casual outerwear — a denim jacket, a wool coat, or a chunky knit. The kind of piece that reads as a considered choice rather than an afterthought.
