Two more recent additions to my jewelry collection. I used to only go for flowers but after finding flowers from West Germany in particular, then butterflies, I have found so many more of these great West German pins that I can no longer resist any of them!

Cute. Is it a theme of West German pins of this era to be shades of blue like these? Seems very Dutch-like too.
How many do you have now? And how many of them are mates like this?

My whole jewelry collection is currently numbering 1000+ but specifically West German, I have 30 flowers, 55 butterflies (shared on AWMOK previously), nine leaves, two ladybugs, one Nefertiti (also shared at AWMOK), the two Dutch kids above, and two others (an owl and a boat with a dragon).
Blue coloring is definitely NOT a theme. See https://www.alleewillis.com/awmok/kitschenette/2010/07/31/jungle-butterflies/ for the West German butterflies.

These are gorgeous, something I would be tempted to have if I saw them.
