Description from the seller
Elegant vintage Yves Saint Laurent pin with the iconic intertwined Cassandre monogram, made of gold-toned metal with a refined crocodile effect texture.
This particular raised motif, rare and highly appreciated by collectors, gives the YSL logo a unique visual depth and a bold character, typical of the maison's productions from the 1980s onward.
The pin features high-quality craftsmanship, with detailed work and a metal in warm gold tones.
It features a closure with a pin and safety hook, fully functional, which ensures a secure attachment to jackets, coats, scarves, or bags.
