Vintage Brooch Silver Tone Filigree Leaves Signed Avante 1970 Or 1983

This is a lovely brooch from a company that was in business from 1957 to 1987. They were known for their two designs, the first of Christmas pins,earrings, and second for floral leafy, classic brooches and bracelets. I read the characteristic feature of Avante was the filigree technique. Their copyright only appeared after 1970 and they closed in 1983. A nice piece to own from about 40 years ago.
