Pinwheel Pebble Brooch

The Pinwheel Pebble Brooch features a beautiful burnt golden kilt pin set with six costume agate pebbles and a central amethyst-colored stone. The pin is not hallmarked, but it is likely by Miracle Studios, a well-known and collected costume jewelry maker in the British isles. It measures just under 2 inches across and is a fine example of 20th century Scottish costume jewelry.

Scottish Costume Jewelry

During the mid-20th century, costume jewelry exploded in Scotland as customers sought classic designs in more affordable styles. Companies like Miracle, Mizpah and Jacobite produced hefty, colorful pins and pendants in plated base metals with glass and acrylic stones. Today, some of these foundries continue to turn out new designs. Older pieces enjoy a high degree of popularity on the secondary market among collectors looking for shapes, designs and colors not commonly found in traditional Scottish silver work.
