🌟 Design & Inspiration

Founded in 1918, Trifari grew into one of the most collectable names in vintage costume jewelry, renowned for its crown-marked designs worn by first ladies and film stars alike. This bold sunflower brooch reflects the 1970s taste for large, sculptural nature motifs — a versatile statement piece that lifts a blazer, coat or knit, and looks just as striking pinned to a bag or scarf.
