Another Great Auction 20th November
A collection of ten pieces of vintage and costume jewelry, primarily brooches, along with one single earring. The lot includes two cameo brooches, one with a white carved shell or resin profile set in an ornate gold-tone frame, and another with a dark carved shell or resin profile set in a faceted black surround. Other pieces include a pearl and rhinestone cluster brooch, a three-pod pearl brooch with a matching single earring, a textured metal brooch with a tassel, a black and gold bow brooch, and various round rhinestone brooches. Materials comprise various gold-tone and silver-tone metals, faux pearls (in white and pink), clear and iridescent paste rhinestones, black enamel, and carved shell or resin. Stylistically, the items range from classical revival (cameos) and ornate mid-20th century inspired designs to more abstract and Art Deco/Retro aesthetics. No discernible text or manufacturer’s marks are visible.
