About the Item

An antique exotic bird brooch from the 1920s. Exquisite attention to detail and craftmanship sets this piece apart as a miniature piece of wearable art from a century ago. Crafted in sterling silver and set with paste stones. The coloured glass stones in gem colours of ruby, emerald and sapphire in an invisible setting giving an extra air of luxury, synonymous with the fine jewellery of this period from the Parisian jewel houses. The invisible setting technique was patented in 1933 by the Parisian jewellery company Van Cleef & Arpels. No surprise then all examples are widely revered and sought after. A timeless piece that speaks to an era of ingenuity and unending style. An unsigned beauty. A rare treasure. Just because a jewel doesn’t carry a designer name, doesn’t mean it isn't coveted. The unsigned beauties in our collection are sourced specifically by Jennifer for their standout style, craftmanship and enduring charm. Part of their charm being they speak for themselves...
