This assortment includes eleven holiday-themed brooches and pins featuring various traditional Christmas motifs. The collection comprises four snowmen, three Christmas trees, one angel, one festive ornament, one candy cane, and an I heart tree brooch. The pieces are constructed from gold-tone and silver-tone base metals, colorful enamels, faceted glass stones, rhinestones, and resin composite materials. Notable identified pieces include a tiered Christmas tree brooch with red and green enamel marked GERRYS on the reverse. A novelty Santa Claus brooch contains an integrated Xanadu quartz watch with a white dial, Arabic numerals, and a stainless steel case back; this piece is attached to a separate faceted glass tree brooch featuring pear-shaped stones in various shades of green. One whimsical snowman pin with blue accents is presented on its original Alia retail card. A composite snowman and candy cane pin features a paw print mark for Teddy Bears & Friends on the reverse. Other items in the lot include a silver-tone openwork angel brooch set with clear rhinestones and a central iridescent aurora borealis stone, an ornament-shaped brooch with yellow and silver enamel accents and green rhinestones, and a red enameled candy cane brooch with a green bow. The metal brooches utilize standard safety catches, while the resin pieces feature simple bar pins. Condition: The collection is in overall good condition with light surface wear and minor scuffing consistent with age. Enamel and stone settings appear intact across all pieces. One snowman remains on its original retail card. The functionality of the Xanadu quartz watch is untested and likely requires a battery replacement.
