Jewel of the day: Aguilar for Coro sterling flower pin

Hector Aguilar designed for Coro in Mexico during the Second World War. This is one of Aguilar’s better known designs, done for his own taller, heavily gilded. This looks like it’s in brand new condition – no tarnish or wear at all. The pin has been bent but is still functional. Marked Made in Mexico Coro Sterling on reverse. The Coro pieces are a great way of acquiring an authentic Aguilar design, made by his craftspeople, for a fraction of the price a non-Coro item would cost.
