Vintage Judy Lee Starburst Brooch
Pickup available at 1622 Paris Road
Usually ready in 24 hours
Description
A raised, layered starburst in warm amber, golden yellow, and deep root-beer brown. The marquise stones fan out like petals and small amber stones on stems reach out at the four points, so the piece has real depth and catches light from several angles. It's a fall palette in brooch form, signed Judy Lee on the back.
Styling ideas:
- Pin it to the lapel of a camel coat or a charcoal wool blazer, where the amber stands out against neutrals. If you want a contrasting look, wear it with cobalt blue.
- Wear it high on a black turtleneck as your only piece of jewelry.
- Use it to close a scarf or shawl, or clip it to the strap of a leather bag.
