Charming vintage mid-century Chinoiserie figural brooch depicting a family on a journey “To Tonkin.” Crafted in pewter-tone metal with remarkable sculptural detail, this piece shows a father, mother, two boys, and a dog beneath parasols — a whimsical Orientalist travel motif popular in 1940s–1950s costume jewelry.
Western-made in the Chinoiserie revival style, it blends Japanese-inspired dress with French Indochina references, echoing the era’s fascination with far-east imagery. The brooch measures about 2 inches long and secures with a roll-over safety clasp, dating it to the mid-century period.
A conversation-starter for collectors of Asian-inspired or travel-themed vintage jewelry, and a unique accent for retro fashion or display.
Condition: Very good vintage condition with even patina and working clasp. No damage or missing detail.
