Vintage Rickshaw Brooch Col Green Dating to the 1960s itThis is such an unusual brooch. Dating to the 1960s it features an Oriental man pulling a rickshaw. It is gold tone metal hand painted in enamels and has three little coloured stones at the back of the rickshaw. It is stamped 'Dorene' at the back. We believe this company only traded for a short time during the 1960s. It has a pin to the back and a roll safety catch. It is in excellent condition.
