Brassler Sapphire StickpinWinged Sapphire |
A glowing sapphire set between stylized wings
in a free-flowing stickpin evocative of a bizarre creature or
insect soaring upwards. Created by Hans Brassler in 14kt
gold, circa 1910.
In the early 1900s Hans Brassler, an innovative goldsmith and jewelry designer, created a wonderful menagerie of jewels that drew upon natural plant and animal forms to create a small collection of fantastic, golden creatures. This whimsical stickpin is a wonderful example of Brassler's imaginative work. The stickpin is finely crafted with a sturdy frame and strong gold pin stem to secure the jewel when it is worn. The maker's mark of The Brassler Company ("14B" in a double oval) is stamped on the upper side of the pin stem. Cost: $425 |
