A Short History...
This brooch is part of a collection of filigree jewellery, which the Theodor Fahrner company produced post 1932. The filigree designs were produced when the silver was soldered with corded wire. Fahrner jewellery of this type features prominently in the book 'Theodor Fahrner Jewellery - Between Avant Garde and Tradition' .

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.
This brooch is a lovely example of Joseff of Hollywood's statement jewellery.
