Founded in the early 1960's in New York, Tara Fifth Avenue company moved to California in 1965. The exact closing date is unknown, however, we can assume the company ceased to exist in the 1970's. Thus, costume jewelry of this company produced for 10 years is vintage, and is beautiful faux pearl and rhinestone brooch is no exception. Added photo that appears to be the craftsman initials and N.Y. Brooch measures approximately 2 inches across.
