Robert Lee Morris Sterling Silver Motorcycle Brooch
About the Item
What a fun and dramatic piece this one is! Very large and important, a true statement of glamour and high fashion, this brooch is composed of two spirals that are joined by a sweeping curvilinear form, very dimensional and sculptural. Big scale was important in the late 1980's fashion, and this was created for a Donna Karan Fall collection whereby an entire family of organic and lively silver shapes accessorized the luxurious fall coats and jackets. Over 4.5 inches long, this is jewelry for the collector of high fashion who loves a bigger personal presentation to the world. Robert lee Morris influenced an entire generation of jewelry and accessory designers due to the incredible editorial coverage his jewelry received over a long period of time. Signed by the artist as seen in the primary photo, these pieces were also brand drivers for the Donna Karan image as well as that of the RLM company.
