Description

Beautiful English Art Nouveau brooch made of silver (tested and guaranteed). The small brooch, created around 1900, is open-worked and designed as a stylized insect whose wings are decorated with masterfully crafted decorative enamel in shimmering shades of blue and green. The body of the animal is adorned with shiny natural pearls, a small movable suspension - also provided with a natural pearl - sets a playful accent. The enamelled reverse of the brooch, so-called contré enamel, is particularly noteworthy. It indicates that the brooch originated in England, where the combination of silver with blue and green enamel became common between 1900-1908. Companies such as Liberty and Co or Murrle, Bennett and Co, which produced similar works and designs, should be mentioned here (cf. Glüber 2011, Jugendstilschmuck - Der Bestand im Hessischen Landesmuseum Darmstadt, p. 311).
This rare brooch is an enchanting collector's item with its own style and character.

Dimensions of the brooch (incl. suspension): 4.6 x 3.0 cm.
Diameter of the natural pearls: approx. 1.4 - 7.5 mm.
Weight: 5.6 grams.
Condition: Very nice historical condition, slight signs of wear, freshly cleaned, see photos.

You will receive the brooch lovingly packed in one of our high-quality cases and with a certificate of authenticity.
Please note: Vintage or antique jewellery is a worn object which may show slight signs of wear due to its history.
