Robert Lee Morris Gilded Double Dolphin Wave Brooch
About the Item
Created in 1987 for Donna Karan's fluid clothing, this brooch is gold plated brass, and is a depiction of two dolphins swimming in the sea. The iconic look of these organic motions, fluid and softly moving is what gave Robert Lee Morris such a memorable personal signature style. This brooch is large so it is appropriate for a winter coat or spring jacket. Dramatic and calming at the same time.
