Sweet luck, but make it vintage.

Lucky Strike is a delightful figural ladybug brooch dating to the 1970s–1980s, a time when costume jewelry leaned playful without sacrificing craftsmanship. The body features beautifully executed ombré enamel wings, fading from soft yellow-green near the head into a rich blue toward the tail—an eye-catching detail that gives this piece real depth.

The wings are accented with faceted green rhinestones in varying shades of teal, emerald, and peridot, mimicking the ladybug’s signature spots with a glamorous twist. Smaller clear stones form the eyes, adding just enough sparkle to bring the piece to life.

Finished in an antique gold-tone metal, the brooch shows natural vintage wear on the back, including light oxidation—perfectly normal for base-metal costume jewelry of this era and a reminder that this piece has lived a little. It is unsigned, which was common for many high-quality department-store pieces sold in the late 20th century.

Ladybugs have long symbolized good luck, protection, and joy, making this brooch not just an accessory—but a small talisman you can wear.
