Boucheron Style Art Deco Plique-a-Jour, Turquoise, Diamond and Pearl Pin
Located in Narberth, PA
"Plique A Jour" is a French term that means "braid letting in daylight". The term refers to the technique in which enamel is applied in cells, similar to cloisonné, but with no backing. This allows light to shine through the transparent or translucent enamel and form a beautiful stained glass like appearance. An absolutely breathtaking and rare plique-à-jour pin from the Art Deco (ca1920) era! This stunning brooch is particularly large in size and crafted in sterling silver and 18kt yellow gold, forming a fabulous curvilinear ornate shape with lovely scalloped edges.

19thc Etruscan Revival 14k Gold Brooch Set with Carved Red Coral & Seed Pearls
Located in valatie, NY
19thc Etruscan Revival 14k Gold Brooch Set With Carved Coral and Silver Colored Seed Pearls. The pillow shaped concave sided brooch has an open-work gold wire border, the top with granulation and gold wire with filigree engraving on the gold wire in a scrolling design. The border is set with four, floral carved coral blossoms and the four corners are mounted with silver colored natural seed pearls and the sides with tapered free moving bullet shaped gold drops. Centering the brooch is a carved coral, sleeping putti. The warm burnished glow in the deep yellow gold was the result of a technique called bloomed gold. A high carat gold wash (22-24 kt), in this case over 14 kt gold. Bloomed gold is alloy deletion leaving a pure gold surface on a piece. This is a different look than gold plating as it leaves a nice frosted effect. These techniques were developed by the Etruscan's. They were master metal smiths and mined various ores including iron, tin, copper, silver, and gold and became famous for their metalworking. Italians have harvested coral...

Antique and Vintage Brooches

Antique and vintage brooches, which are decorative jewels traditionally pinned to garments and used to fasten pieces of clothing together where needed, have seen increasing popularity in recent years.

Given their long history, brooches have expectedly taken on a variety of different shapes and forms over time, with jewelers turning to assorted methods of ornamentation for these accessories, including enameling and the integration of pearls and gemstones.

Cameo brooches that originated during the Victorian age are characterized by a shell carved in raised relief that feature portraits of a woman’s profile, while 19th-century micromosaic brooches, comprising innumerable individually placed glass fragments, sometimes feature miniature depictions of a pastoral scene in daily Roman life.

At one time, brooches were symbols of wealth, made primarily from the finest metals and showcasing exquisite precious gemstones. Today, these jewels are inclusive and universal, and you don’t have to travel very far to find an admirer of brooches. They can be richly geometric in form, such as the ornate diamond pins dating from the Art Deco era, or designer-specific, such as the celebrated naturalistic works created by Tiffany & Co., the milk glass and gold confections crafted by Trifari or handmade vintage Chanel brooches of silk or laminated sheer fabric.

Brooches are versatile and adaptable. These decorative accessories can be worn in your hair, on hats, scarves and on the lower point of V-neck clothing. Pin a dazzling brooch to the lapel of your blazer-and-tee combo or add a cluster of smaller pins to your overcoat. And while brooches have their place in “mourning jewelry,” in that a mourning brooch is representative of your connection to a lost loved one, they’re widely seen as romantic and symbolic of love, so much so that a hardcore brooch enthusiast might advocate for brooches to be worn over the heart.

Today, find a wide variety of antique and vintage brooches on 1stDibs, including gold brooches, sapphire brooches and more.
