Vintage 1940s Beta Sigma Phi Pearl Sorority Pin w Safety Chain

Beautiful vintage Beta Sigma Phi (ΒΣΦ) sorority pin, featuring a classic black enamel oval design with a vertical bar set with six seed pearls and an original safety chain. ✨ Age & Provenance Based on family history, this pin is believed to date to the 1940s. It was worn by my mother, who was born in 1923 and married in 1946, placing this piece firmly in the WWII–postwar era when these pins were commonly worn during college and early marriage years. ✨ Materials & Details • Black enamel with raised Greek letters Β Σ Φ • Six seed pearls (likely genuine seed pearls typical of the era; not professionally tested) • Horizontal pin back with original safety chain • Dark silver-tone metal with authentic vintage patina ✨ Condition Good vintage condition for its age. There is surface wear, patina, and age-appropriate signs of use consistent with a piece over 80 years old. Pearls are secure. Clasp and chain function properly. Please review photos closely, as they are part of the description. This is a lovely example of mid-century sorority jewelry with genuine family provenance — ideal for collectors of Greek life memorabilia, vintage jewelry, or meaningful estate pieces.
