Three Wise Monkeys - See, Hear, Call Out Evil

$50.00

This wonderful brooch was created by the American Jewelry Chain Co. during the 1970s or 1980s. Instead of the usual depiction of monkeys covering their eyes, ears, and mouth to avoid evil, this piece sends an opposite message. One monkey is searching through binoculars, another has its hands cupped behind its ears for better hearing, and the other is shouting through a megaphone. The message seems to be that evil should not go unnoticed and those who detect it should not remain silent. The generously sized piece is cast in beautiful detail and plated in softly burnished gold-tone. The safety clasp holds well. It is marked with the copyright symbol and A.J.C.

Measures 1-1/2 × 2-1/2 inches.

Excellent vintage condition.
