![]() Art Nouveau Autumn Brooch![]() Autumn! |
A beautiful Art Nouveau brooch celebrating autumn. A woman in profile is surrounded by a profusion of blossoming chrysanthemums. One of the chrysanthemums is set with a sparkling diamond. Created by Bippart, Griscom & Osborn in 14kt gold, circa 1900.
![]() The reverse of the brooch is just as beautiful. A dramatic trinity of blossoms explode like fireworks in the night sky. The brooch is secured with a sturdy pin stem and "C" clasp. A chatelaine hook allows a watch or other pendant to be suspended below the brooch.
![]() The reverse of the brooch is stamped "14K" for the purity of the gold. To the right of the gold mark, a maker's mark is just visible. The mark, a flaming torch lying horizontally, belongs to the jewelry makers Bippart, Griscom & Osborn, who created fine gold and platinum jewelry during the late 1800s and early decades of the following century. Name: Autumn! |
