“Lounge Lizard Luxe” – A Sparkling 1990s P. Cardin Statement Brooch.
Slither into the spotlight with this dazzling vintage 1990s designer costume brooch by none other than P. Cardin, Paris — a piece that’s anything but shy. This golden creature of glamour is expertly fashioned in the unmistakable form of a sinuous lizard, its elongated body gleaming with smooth gold-plated curves and a glistening trail of crystal rhinestones that shimmer like desert sunlight on warm sandstone.
Each rhinestone is set with precision, catching the light as the lizard appears to crawl its way across your lapel or sweater, its limbs frozen mid-stride in a pose full of motion and mystique. The craftsmanship is delightfully expressive — from the delicate texture on the tiny feet to the gently curled tail, it’s a wearable sculpture with sass and sparkle. At over palm-sized length, this brooch is no subtle adornment — it’s a conversation-starting, jaw-dropping, unapologetically glamorous statement.
Housed in its original black velvet P. Cardin Paris presentation box, this piece still carries the luxury cachet and space-age legacy of its designer. P.Cardin, a true fashion futurist, rose to fame in the 1960s with his bold, architectural silhouettes and avant-garde creations. Though most known for redefining haute couture with a sci-fi flair, Cardin also ventured into jewelry in the 1970s–1990s, producing collectible pieces that matched his love for dramatic forms and dynamic design.
This brooch reflects that golden era of designer costume jewelry — when fun met fashion, and elegance embraced a little eccentricity.This lizard adds an instant touch of playful opulence and high-fashion heritage.
