The Details...

This brooch is constructed from silver - it is stamped 'STERLING SILVER' on the reverse. It features a typical Art Nouveau design that appears to represent a plume of feathers. It is set with small, round, colourless paste stones. At the brooch's centre is an oval turquoise glass cabochon. The fastening pin is fitted to the brooch with a round hinge and the brooch secures with a 'C' clasp. The brooch measures 9.5cm x 1.5cm. This piece appears to have originally been part of a hair comb or tiara. However, its conversion to a brooch is historic, probably occurring not long after it was made.

A Short History...

The jewellery of the Art Nouveau period can be exemplified by an allusion to the natural world. This brooch is particularly representative of this aesthetic phase, which began in the 1880s and started to wane in the 1900s/1910s.

Wear it With...

The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:

- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.

- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.

- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.

- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.

- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
