Item Description:

A sweet brooch by Beau Sterling reviving the popular Posey Holders - this one, I believe, was made to hold a single floral stem - probably a rose.


Posey holders were very popular in the Victorian period  and seem to have a resurgence in popularity every 25 years or so. They came in all sizes and shapes some even meant to carry a bouquet. You can read more about them at the below URL. Enjoy !

Most of our items are vintage unless we tell you otherwise. Therefore expect them to be in "Vintage" condition. We do not thoroughly clean our items, leaving that to the preferences of the buyer, and if there are any serious problems, flaws or noticeable repairs, we will always try to note it in the description.  Realizing that nothing can replace a "hands-on" inspection of an item, if you are not satisfied with your purchase for any reason, we will always accept returns or otherwise try to make you a satisfied customer. Our return policy can be found at the top of the item page.
