Product Insights
This golden yellow cross brooch from Simons' exclusive Le 31 line, designed in Canada, offers a lasting black-tie boutonniere alternative for formal occasions. Its lightweight 5–8 gram lock-hook closure attaches directly through any fabric without a buttonhole, securing on denim, wool, and knits while remaining gentle on silk. The 1.25-inch width fits typical lapels proportionally, and the warm, less brassy tone creates high contrast on dark suits while coordinating with gold accessories. The cross motif serves as classic, restrained formal symbolic wear.

| Rhinestone Cross Brooch: Choose this if you want a small (1.25 inch / 3 cm wide), gold-toned cross brooch in Golden Yellow from an exclusive Le 31 by Simons design made in Canada. It is made of metal with faux stones and faux crystals—so the embellishments are imitation, not genuine gems—and fastens with a lock-hook pin closure featuring a rotating safety catch. It comes in a single one-size variant.[1,2] | Pearl And Gemstone Cross Brooch: Choose this if you want a statement cross brooch with a symmetric gold-tone metal frame, Swarovski crystals, faux pearls, and multicolored accent stones, sized at about 2.25 inches (5.5 cm) with a post and hook closure and safety clasp. It is a Le 31 by Simons exclusive designed in Canada, offered in one size in the Black color variant. Note that the pearls are fake rather than real, and the metal is gold-tone, which the listing does not describe as solid gold.[3,4,5] | Rhinestone Orb Brooch: Choose this for an ornamental gold-tone lapel piece: a domed orb densely paved with rhinestones, topped by a small cross, framed by a twisted rope band with a single dark red faceted accent stone, and about 1.75 inches (4.5 cm) wide. It is made of faux gemstones and metal with a metallic bar and lock-hook closure, and comes in one size in the Golden Yellow color. Note that the metal has an intentionally irregular hammered or cast texture, and some small darker pits or blemishes are visible in the cup interior.[6,7,8] |
