Tiffany & Co 1971 by Sonia Younis Rare Pendant Brooch in Solid 18Kt Yellow Gold

About the Item

Rare pendant Brooch designed by Sonia Younis for Tiffany & Co. An exceptional collector's piece, created in New York city by the designer Sonia Younis for the Tiffany Studios, back in the 1971. This rare hexagonal pendant brooch has been crafted in the shape of a futuristic piramidal spacial station in solid yellow gold of 18 karats with highly textured finish. Fitted with a hinged horizontal pin bar with a security lock to wear as a brooch and a discrete bale to wear in a chain or a necklace. As a result of the race to conquer space, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, futuristic designs with hexagonal shapes and triangles with scalene angles became very popular. In turn, the designs with motifs of spaceship conceptions with similarities to Mayan and Aztec pyramids were exploited in all the plastic arts. This rare piece that we present here is a vivid example of this period and it is a fine example of the exquisite quality and craftsmanship for which Tiffany and Co. is known. Weight: 48.95 Grams, (31.38 Dwt). Measurements: 51 mm by 51 mm (2 x 2 Inches). Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark, the gold assay mark and signed, "TIFFANY & CO. 18KT".

This piece is part of a limited edition of only 9 sculptures, carefully crafted with geometric squared and curved patterns in solid yellow gold of 18 karats with very high polished finish. Fitted at the reverse with a hinged pin bar to wear as a brooch and a curved bale to wear in a chain or necklace. Weight: 66.6 Grams, (40.77 Dwt). Measurements: 55 mm by 55 mm x 10 mm (2.16 x 2.16 x 0.39 Inches). Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark, the edition number, the editorial house and signed in script by artist., "HANS RICHTER 1/9 1971 .750 GM 18KT HR-1" Hans Richter (1888-1976) was a German Dada painter, graphic artist, avant-garde film producer, and art historian. In 1965 he authored the book Dadaism about the history of the Dada movement. He was born in Berlin into a well-to-do family and died in Minusio, near Locarno, Switzerland. From Expressionism through Dadaism, Constructivism and Neoplasticism, he was one of the major figures of avant-garde art in the 1910s and 1920s and a catalyst for intellectuals and artists in many disciplines. Richter helped organise exhibitions which revived interest in Dada, both in the United States and Europe. In 1956 he made Dadascope, a film dedicated to Dada poetry. Richter moved from Switzerland to the United States in 1940 and became an American citizen. Beginning in 1941 he taught at the Institute of Film Techniques at the City College of New York before taking over as director. While living in New York City, Richter directed two feature films, Dreams That Money Can Buy (1947) and 8 x 8: A Chess Sonata in 8 Movements (1957) in collaboration with Max Ernst, Jean Cocteau, Paul Bowles, Fernand Léger, Alexander Calder, Marcel Duchamp, and others, which was partially filmed on the lawn of his summer house in Southbury, Connecticut. In 1957, he finished a film entitled Dadascope with original poems and prose spoken by their creators: Hans Arp, Marcel Duchamp, Raoul Hausmann, Richard Huelsenbeck, and Kurt Schwitters. After 1958, Richter spent parts of the year in Ascona and Connecticut and returned to painting. Peggy Guggenheim organized his first solo show in the United States in which his large painted scrolls, inspired by the Second World War, featured prominently. In 1963, he directed the short film From the Circus to the Moon about the American artist Alexander Calder. In 1965, Richter was also the author of a first-hand account of the Dada movement titled Dada: Art and Anti-Art which also included his reflections on the emerging Neo-Dada artworks. Note: Dadaism is a cultural and artistic movement created in order to counteract the arts, which emerged in 1916 at the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich. It was proposed by Hugo Ball...
