Brooch

A brooch is a decorative jewelry item, typically metal, attached to clothing with a pin, serving as both a fastener and an ornament for garments, hats, scarves, or bags, with historical roots as clothing clasps evolving into significant status symbols and fashion statements, from Victorian mourning pieces to modern designer art. Brooches have diverse designs, materials (metal, glass, plastic), and symbolic meanings, currently experiencing a major fashion resurgence as versatile accessories.
