Vintage 18K Le Vian Invisible Set Ruby Diamond Lobster Brooch RETIRED

About the Item

If you have ever wanted the rarest piece from Le Vian, well here you are. This is the coveted lobster brooch in the largest size done in 18K yellow gold with perfectly matched invisible set rubies and diamonds. It features articulating pincers and tale with its antennae done in gold wire and finished off with ruby cabochons. From the Le Vian web site: “Le Vian's famous lobster pin was first introduced in 1981, is still a reigning favorite. The 18 karat gold-banded body is invisibly set with princess-cut rubies; the eyes and tentacle tips are cabochan rubies. Diamond-studded claws complete this delicious crustacean. The lobster has the distinction of being the forerunner of today's wonderful world of land, sea and air creatures by Le Vian. Peacocks to humming-birds, fish to frogs, bears to butterflies, crabs to cottontails, lady bugs to puppy dogs - all look their glittering best garbed in jeweled gold by Le Vian.” Dimensions/Weight: Brooch measures 2.75” long by 2.50” wide with antennae and weighs 20g. Condition: All stones are secure and all makers marks are present and legible. B-HJA
