Marguerite Stix
Marguerite Stix was born in Vienna and although she was too young to be a member of the Wiener Werkstätte she nevertheless became a protege of Josef Hoffman at a very young age.
Stix worked as a sculptor and artist in Vienna until she was forced to flee the German invasion of Austria in 1938. She fled to Paris where she began designing a line of ceramic pins and buttons. These became favorites of the haute couture houses of Molyneux, Balenciaga, Schiaparelli, Lanvin and Patou.
In 1941, Stix was interred in a concentration camp in France. When she was released, she made her way to America. Stix had her first show as a sculptor in New York City in 1951, working in terra cotta and bronze. She began to make jewelry in the mid-1960s until her death in 1975. Stix had a solo exhibit at Cartier in 1972 and the house continued to sell her jewelry.

Antique Japanese WovenSilk PaintedCeramicOjimes Beadwork Embroidery Inro
Located in Chicago, IL
This rare antique Edo-period (1615-1868) Japanese handmade inro is a curved lozenge-shaped hand-dyed woven-silk hard carrying-case container sheath that features intricate embroidery with rock-crystal or glass beadwork and thin leather-wrapped thread appliques. For its "Kimono Style" exhibition, TheMet museum noted: "the dying, weaving, and embroidery techniques for which Japan is famed reached their peak of artistic sophistication during the Edo period."
On the burgundy finely-braided silk obijime cord that suspends the inro hang adjustable ojime fasteners of glazed earthenware, which are hand-painted with underglaze and overglaze enamels. The imagery includes signature-like branches, mountains, and a pine tree. Each knotted end of the cord dangles from the bottom of the inro with two rice-paper tubular beads.
We could not find any Japanese beads...
